JV234: The Struts MVC Framework (1 Day)
Course Overview
Struts helps you create an extensible development environment for your applications,
based on published standards and proven design patterns. It encourages
web application architectures based on the Model 2 approach, a
variation of the classic Model-View-Controller (MVC) design paradigm.
Struts provides its own Controller component and integrates with
other technologies to provide the Model and the View. For the
Model, Struts can interact with any standard data access technology,
including Enterprise Java Beans, JDBC, and JNDI. For the View,
Struts works well with JavaServer Pages, Templates Engines such
as Velocity, XML technologies such as XSLT, and other presentation
systems.
Audience
Software developers, designers, managers and architects interested
in hands-on exploration of enterprise and advanced aspects of
Jakarta Struts.
