14 Mar 2006 The Rational® Application Developer for WebSphere® Software Web development tutorial is the third tutorial in a
series of seven tutorials created to help
you prepare for the IBM Certification Test 255, Developing with IBM Rational Application Developer for WebSphere Software V6.
Learn how to create a J2EE 1.4 Web application using Rational Application Developer 6. The application you will create is in the form of Model-View-Controller (MVC). Step through how to create a controller servlet and a model servlet, which includes your business logic. Then take a look at using JavaServer Pages (JSPs) for the View, including both an HTML input form and the HTML output from the server. Next you can experiment with using a JavaBean to help with the business logic. Pick up techniques for forwarding between server-side components, creating server-side dynamic data that returns to the user's browser, configuring the XML files that are required by J2EE, and testing with WebSphere Application Server 6.
Objectives
In this tutorial you create a first vertical slice (a basic version of the application that runs from start to finish) of a potentially much larger Web application. The slice includes all the major fundamental components of a J2EE 1.4 Model-View-Controller application. After you complete this tutorial, you should understand how those components -- servlets, JSPs, JavaBeans, and deployment descriptors -- fit together and how Application Developer can facilitate the whole process.
Prerequisites
This tutorial assumes intermediate Java™ skills, at least with respect to J2SE. J2EE understanding is helpful, but not essential. Moreover, it is assumes you have gone through the two previous tutorials in this series or have equivalent knowledge with Rational Application Developer.
System requirements
To run the examples in this tutorial, you need to install Rational Application Developer for
WebSphere Software or Rational Web Developer for WebSphere Software.
You can download a free trial version of
Rational Application Developer for WebSphere Software if you don't already have a
copy of it.
The hardware and software requirements for this software can be located at
IBM Rational Application Developer System Requirements.
