Description

This course enables the experienced Java developer to use the Spring application framework to manage objects in a lightweight "IoC" (inversion-of-control) container. Spring is a far-reaching framework that aims to facilitate all sorts of Java development, including every level of multi-tier distributed systems. Here we focus on the "Core" module of the framework, developing facility in instantiating, configuring, and assembling Spring beans for various purposes.

The Core module gives the developer declarative control over object creation and assembly; this is useful for any tier of any Java application. So is Spring's validation framework, and so we study not only the assembly of object graphs, but also how to apply validation logic to those objects and to report errors to the user or to another software component.

Prerequisites

• Java programming -- CJP103 is excellent preparation.
