A complete guide to designing and using frameworks for Java applications. Java(TM) Application Frameworks. Application frameworks are a major leap forward in systems design and software reusability. Java has provided an enormous foundation upon which highly reusable components and applications can be built successfully. Building object-oriented systems is complex. Building highly reusable frameworks and components is even more challenging. This book substantially reduces the application frameworks' learning curve. Expert Darren Govoni follows a natural progression, from concept, to practice, to implementation. Building on examples of existing frameworks, he walks you through all the steps involved in designing frameworks, and provides guidelines on how to use frameworks within large architectures and systems. Important topics covered include: * Basic framework concepts and design techniques. * Using 8 design patterns-illustrated with UML-for framework design and implementation. * Constructing JavaBean components as the building blocks for a reusableframework . * A complete discussion of two powerful Java frameworks-Java Foundation Classes (JFC/Swing) and InfoBus-and how they adhere to the important traits found in good frameworks: proper use of abstraction through interfaces and abstract classes, substitution of application objects, extension or enhancement of key objects within the framework through abstract and default implementations. * How to manage complexity and reusability with abstracted foundations. * A complete methodology and architecture-Composite Foundation Architecture-for organizing and developing frameworks, components, and subsystems within a larger complex system. * Key considerations for developing frameworks within distributed architectures, including data access, GUIs, business objects, and distributed objects using JDBC, JFC, and RMI. * How to use enterprise frameworks such as Enterprise JavaBeans and CORBA (via Java IDL) to access, retrieve, and store information across a network. Visit the Companion Web site at www.wiley.com/compbooks/govoni/ for: * Source code from the application objects presented in this book. * Links to more information on frameworks.

Explore the Java Virtual Machine with modern programming languages About This Book This guide provides in-depth coverage of the Java Virtual Machine and its features Filled with practical examples, this book will help you understand the core concepts of Java, Scala, Clojure, Kotlin, and Groovy Work with various programming paradigms and gain knowledge about imperative, object-oriented and functional programming Who This Book Is For This book is meant for programmers who are interested in the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) and want to learn more about the most popular programming languages that can be used for JVM development. Basic practical knowledge of a modern programming language that supports object-oriented programming (JavaScript, Python, C#, VB.NET, and C++) is assumed. What You Will Learn Gain practical information about the Java Virtual Machine Understand the popular JVM languages and the Java Class Library Get to know about various programming paradigms such as imperative, object-oriented, and functional Work with common JVM tools such as Eclipse IDE, Gradle, and Maven Explore frameworks such as SparkJava, Vert.x, Akka and JavaFX Boost your knowledge about dialects of other well-known programming languages that run on the JVM, including JavaScript, Python, and Ruby In Detail Anyone who knows software development knows about the Java Virtual Machine. The Java Virtual Machine is responsible for interpreting Java byte code and translating it into actions. In the beginning, Java was the only programming language used for the JVM. But increasing complexity of the language and the remarkable performance of the JVM created an opening for a new generation of programming languages. If you want to build a strong foundation with the Java Virtual Machine and get started with popular modern programming languages, then this book is for you. The book will begin with a general introduction of the JVM and its features, which are common to the JVM languages, helping you get abreast with its concepts. It will then dive into explaining languages such as Java, Scala, Clojure, Kotlin, and Groovy and will show how to work with each language, their features, use cases, and pros and cons. By writing example projects in those languages and focusing on each language's strong points, it will help you find the programming language that is most appropriate for your particular needs. By the end of the book, you will have written multiple programs that run on the Java Virtual Machine and know about the differences between the various languages. Style and approach This practical, example-filled guide will help you get started with the JVM and some of its most popular languages.

For weeks, months—nay!—from the very moment you were born, you’ve felt it calling to you. At long last you’ll be united with the programming language you’ve been longing for: Clojure! As a Lisp-style functional programming language, Clojure lets you write robust and elegant code, and because it runs on the Java Virtual Machine, you can take advantage of the vast Java ecosystem. Clojure for the Brave and True offers a "dessert-first" approach: you’ll start playing with real programs immediately, as you steadily acclimate to the abstract but powerful features of Lisp and functional programming. Inside you’ll find an offbeat, practical guide to Clojure, filled with quirky sample programs that catch cheese thieves and track glittery vampires. Learn how to: –Wield Clojure’s core functions –Use Emacs for Clojure development –Write macros to modify Clojure itself –Use Clojure’s tools to simplify concurrency and parallel programming Clojure for the Brave and True assumes no prior experience with Clojure, the Java Virtual Machine, or functional programming. Are you ready, brave reader, to meet your true destiny? Grab your best pair of parentheses—you’re about to embark on an epic journey into the world of Clojure!
