Chapter 1 - Web 2.0 and Struts2
Before charging forward with developing a Web 2.0 application,
you need to understand what a Web 2.0 application really is. In this chapter, you will learn what Web 2.0 means from a development as well as end user perspective.
Chapter 2 - Getting Up and Running
In this chapter, you will learn everything you need to get started with Struts2.
Starting
with information on the build process, you will continue on to generate an example application. You will run the example project on an application server, and with a running
example, learn how the different parts of a basic Struts2 application interact.
Chapter 3 - Framework Overview
In this chapter, we
will expand upon these to provide you with an understanding of the larger picture.
Chapter 4 - Application Overview
To illustrate
how to develop Web 2.0 applications using Struts2, we first need an application to build. This chapter focuses on providing an overview of the application, technologies, and
development process that will be used throughout the remainder of the book.
Chapter 5 - Data Manipulation
In this chapter, you will
learn about developing actions, including an overview of the different styles that are available. You will learn how actions interact with existing domain objects, how to access
Spring business services, how to access information from the action in the user interface, and how to add internationalization, validation, and exception handling.
Chapter 6 - Wizards and Workflows
This chapter provides the implementation for a modestly complex workflow, providing an example
using several detours. Youll learn about a new interceptor to provide the workflow functionality, complex validation and custom validators, custom tag rendering templates,
and flash scope.
Chapter 7 - Security
In this chapter, we will discuss the security attributes of authorization and authentication.
Chapter 8 - Searching and Listings
In this chapter, you will learn how to add searching to the web application, as well as how to render
the subsequent result lists. The functionality will be introduced using two different options: a quick search feature that appears on every page, and a search form that the
user requests via HTML link.
Chapter 9 - Syndication and Integration
In this chapter, you will learn about the different options to
provide syndication and integration in web applications. First well discuss a RSS (Really Simple Syndication) feed, then consuming the RSS feed to create a mashup, and
finally providing a REST (Representational State Transfer) style web service to access data.
