Greetings Software Enthusiasts!
Our June 26th meeting features Keith Donald with a talk on...
Spring Web 2.5 and beyond
Spring has a number of interesting modules for web development, including Spring Web MVC, Spring Web Flow, Spring JavaScript, and Spring Faces. This session will provide an overview of these modules and show how they relate to one another. By the end of this session, you'll understand how Spring simplifies the development and deployment of rich web applications. You'll also gain a glimpse into the roadmap for Spring Web 3.0.
Spring Web MVC is a popular web framework, and the base platform for powering Spring-based web applications.
Version 2.5 introduces significant new features that simplify the core MVC programming model, including support for annotated @Controllers.
Also building on the Spring MVC platform are a number of interesting extensions. Spring Web Flow 2 adds significant new features for implementing flows within a Spring MVC-based app. Spring Faces, a new module, provides groundbreaking support for JavaServerFaces in a familiar Spring MVC environment. And last but not last least, Spring Javascript, a new module, integrates leading UI toolkits such as Dojo into a Spring MVC environment. Come to this session to get an update on the state of Spring Web, see how to put these technologies into practice, and learn what's coming in Spring Web 3.0.
