Product Description
Spring addresses most aspects of Java/Java EE application development and offers simple solutions to them. By using Spring, you will be lead to use industry best practices to design and implement your applications. The releases of Spring 2.x have added many improvements and new features to the 1.x versions. Spring Recipes: A Problem–Solution Approach focuses on the latest Spring 2.5 features for building enterprise Java applications. Spring Recipes covers Spring 2.5 from basic to advanced, including Spring IoC container, Spring AOP and AspectJ, Spring data access support, Spring transaction management, Spring Web and Portlet MVC, Spring testing support, Spring support for remoting, EJB, JMS, JMX, E–mail, scheduling, and scripting languages. This book also introduces several common Spring Portfolio projects that will bring significant value to your application development, including Spring Security, Spring Web Flow, and Spring Web Services. The topics in this book are introduced by complete and real–world code examples that you can follow step by step. Instead of abstract descriptions on complex concepts, you will find live examples in this book. When you start a new project, you can consider copying the code and configuration files from this book, and then modifying them for your needs. This can save you a great deal of work over creating a project from scratch. What you’ll learn Installing the Spring framework and Spring IDE, using the Spring IoC container and the Spring application context. Understanding AOP concepts, using classic and new Spring AOP, integrating Spring with AspectJ, and load–time weaving aspects. Using Spring to simplify data access (with JDBC, Hibernate, and JPA) and manage transactions programmatically and declaratively. Building web applications and portlets with Spring Web MVC and Portlet MVC, and integrating Spring with Struts, JSF, and DWR. Understanding the unit testing and integration testing concepts, and Spring’s unit and integration testing support (on JUnit 3.8, JUnit 4, and TestNG). Using Spring’s support for remoting technologies (RMI, Hessian, Burlap, and HTTP Invoker), EJB, JMS, JMX, E-mail, scheduling, and scripting languages. Understanding security concepts (authentication, authorization, and access control), and securing web applications using Spring Security. Managing complex web application page flows using Spring Web Flow, and integrating Spring Web Flow with JSF. Exposing contract–last web services using XFire, and developing contract–first web services using Spring Web Services. Who is this book for? This book is for Java developers who would like to gain hands–on experience rapidly on Java/Java EE development using the Spring framework. If you are already a developer using Spring in your projects, you can also use this book as a reference, and you’ll find the code examples very useful. You don’t need much Java EE experience to read this book. However, it assumes that you know the basics of object–oriented programming with Java (e.g., creating a class/interface, implementing an interface, extending a base class, running a main class, setting up your classpath, and so on). It also assumes you have basic knowledge on web and database concepts and know how to create dynamic web pages and query databases with SQL statements. |

Great comlimentary book for learning by Steven Cook  4 Stars
November 06, 2009
I was tasked with having to learn the Spring framework and bought the book "Spring in Action" which.. though it was a very good book.. was sometimes a bit too disconnected at times from the example source code the book would refer to in very short and small snippets. As a result, though I felt I was learning the theoretical academics of Spring, I was hard pressed to feel like I could relate to it on a concrete coding level. As a result, I did my research on other Spring books and found this one. Armed with my cursory theoretical knowledge of Spring, this book was EXACTLY what I needed to connect the theory to actual coding practices and really brought it home in very practical terms. I should point out that a person could very easily learn Spring from just reading this book alone but I think that some up front base knowledge of how Spring works really makes this book shine. My recommendation is to simply read through Spring's tutorials first (online) and then read through this book. When you are done, you will be a Spring expert in no time flat!

The best book on Spring out there, but.. by Patrick M 4 Stars
September 25, 2009
The best book on Spring out there from a beginners perspective, but still, I wish the author used Eclipse IDE and Junit and some pictures for helping with installation etc. But if you are looking for an easy to understand Spring book, this is the best in the market. Hope the author makes it as easy as the Hibernate made easy book by Cameron in a future edition.

The best Spring book, and one of the best tech books in general by Kaleb Brasee  5 Stars
September 13, 2009
I've read most all of the major Spring books, and Spring Recipes is the best one. It starts at the beginning with a practical explanation of IoC and eventually covers nearly every feature that Spring offers in an extremely practical way. In addition to core Spring, major modules such as Spring Security and MVC are covered in depth as well. The source code examples are top-notch, simple yet complete enough to allow you to implement the functionality you're reading about. Spring Recipes is one of the most useful and best tech books I've ever read, if not the best.

Spring Recipes by L. Chung 5 Stars
September 05, 2009
This book is a great companion to "Spring in Action". It was obviously written by someone who earned a living as Java developer and knew what other developers need when learning a new framework for their jobs. I liked the way the book is organized into three main sections, Core, Fundamentals and Advanced. Each section had self-evident no nonsense titles like "Inversion of Control and Containers" or "Spring Security".
I wish I had this book three years ago when I was learning to use the Spring framework. Instead, I had the ever self-indulgent "Spring: A Developer's Notebook", which was a complete waste of $30.

Outstanding by Taruvai Subramaniam (Troy, MI USA) 5 Stars
August 15, 2009
This is THE book you should own if you are using Spring. It is organized as cookbook. I refer to it all the time. Very thorough and complete. Of course if you want a good introduction you should read Craig Walls book on Spring If you want to use Spring Web Services or Spring Security in a more than elementary way read the respective reference manuals.
