商品描述

Many web development frustrations can be traced back to the underlying stateless HTTP protocol. Tapestry represents state and behavior as standard Java objects, methods and properties. That means state management and multithreading are handled by the framework, leaving you with just your application’s business logic. Tapestry does more, you do less.

Tapestry in Action is the definitive guide to the Tapestry approach: creating full-featured web apps by connecting framework components to economical amounts of application code. Many simple examples show you how to tackle common tasks such as form validation, application localization, client-side scripting, and synchronization between browser and app server. Later chapters discuss more advanced topics including creation of new components and integration with J2EE.

If you want to create great web applications using Tapestry and know Java (plus plain-vanilla HTML and a little XML), this book is for you.

What’s Inside

  • Tapestry’s Component Object Model
  • How to write new components
  • How to configure third party components
  • Dynamic JavaScript integration
  • Form validation
  • Tapestry/JSP integration
  • Localization/internationalization
  • J2EE integration

商品描述(中文翻譯)

許多網頁開發的挫折可以追溯到底層的無狀態HTTP協議。Tapestry將狀態和行為表示為標準的Java對象、方法和屬性。這意味著狀態管理和多線程由框架處理,讓您只需專注於應用程序的業務邏輯。Tapestry做得更多,您做得更少。

《Tapestry in Action》是Tapestry方法的權威指南:通過將框架組件連接到經濟量的應用程序代碼,創建功能完整的Web應用程序。許多簡單的示例向您展示如何處理常見任務,例如表單驗證、應用程序本地化、客戶端腳本和瀏覽器與應用程序服務器之間的同步。後面的章節討論了更高級的主題,包括創建新組件和與J2EE集成。

如果您想使用Tapestry創建出色的Web應用程序並且熟悉Java(以及純HTML和一點XML),那麼這本書就是為您而寫的。

內容包括:
- Tapestry的組件對象模型
- 如何編寫新組件
- 如何配置第三方組件
- 動態JavaScript集成
- 表單驗證
- Tapestry/JSP集成
- 本地化/國際化
- J2EE集成

內容概述:
- 第1部分:使用基本的Tapestry組件
- 第2部分:入門Tapestry
- 第3部分:Tapestry和HTML表單
