Description
|
|
ICEfaces is an open source Ajax application framework for developing Web2.0 applications in a
Java Enterprise Edition (JEE) platform. ICEfaces leverages the JavaServer Faces (JSF) technology
and extends the JSF component suite with a set of AJAX-enabled components that enables the
development of highly interactive, thin-cilent, visually rich internet applications (RIA). The
framework exists on the server-side and produces AJAX-enabled content to be rendered on the
client-side. The developer works mostly with the ICEfaces components and Java and not JavaScript.
This course provides an in-depth coverage of the ICEfaces architecture, its component suite and
will give you all the information you need to Web 2.0 applications, including how to build rich
browser-based user interfaces with ICEfaces, how to incorporate the ICEfaces components in your
web pages, how to push server initiated content rendering to the client, how to build
secure Web 2. 0 applications while preventing cross-site scripting, maclicious code injection
and unauthorized data mining, and how to build scalable Web 2.0 applications using clustering.
This course not only covers the technology, but also provides useful tips on best practices and
design patterns.
