Spring in Action - Couverture souple

Craig Walls, one of Manning’s best writers, has produced a much expanded

and completely updated edition to cover the exciting new features of the justreleased

Spring 2.0. The book is a hands-on, example-driven exploration of the

Spring framework. Combining short code snippets and an ongoing example

developed throughout the book, it shows readers how to build simple and efficient

J2EE applications, how to solve persistence problems, handle asynchronous

messaging, create and consume remote services, build web applications,

and integrate with most popular web frameworks. Readers will learn how to use

Spring to write simpler, easier to maintain code so they can focus on what

really matters—critical business needs.
