Common 1. Content Best Worst Data : every argument is either a simple argument or a data structure in which all elements are used by the called module.  Each datum is an elementary piece, and these are the only data shared; e.g., passing an integer to a function that computes a square root. (maintenance is easier) <good design has high cohesion & weak coupling> COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8

Service Locator Pattern COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8

Service Locator Pattern Context Service lookup and creation involves complex interfaces and network operations. Problem The service locator pattern is a design pattern used in software development to encapsulate the processes involved in obtaining a service with a strong abstraction layer. When J2EE clients interact with the server side components (EJB: Enterprise Java Beans) or DataSources, clients must locate the service component, which referred to as a lookup operation in JNDI:  Java Naming and Directory Interface. COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8

Service Locator Pattern Solution Using a central registry known as the "service locator", which on request returns the information necessary to perform a certain task. Service Locator object will abstract all JNDI usage to hide the complexities of initial context creation and lookup operations Multiple clients can reuse the Service Locator object to reduce code complexity, provide a single point of control msdn.microsoft.com COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8

Service Locator Pattern The Service Locator abstracts the API lookup services, vendor dependencies, lookup complexities, and business object creation, and provides a simple interface to clients. COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8

Service Locator Pattern InitialContext: The InitialContext object is the start point in the lookup and creation process. COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8

Service Locator Pattern ServiceFactory: The ServiceFactory object represents an object that provides life cycle management for the BusinessService objects. eg., The ServiceFactory object for enterprise beans is an EJBHome object. COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8

Service Locator Pattern BusinessService: is a role that is fulled by the service that the client is seeking to access. The BusinessService object : is created or looked up or removed by the ServiceFactory. in the context of an EJB application is an enterprise bean. the context of JDBC is a DataSource. COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8

Dependency Injection COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8

Dependency COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8

SAX Books Parser Example COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8

What is "dependency injection" ? In software engineering, dependency injection is a software design pattern that implements inversion of control for resolving dependencies. Dependency injection means giving an object its instance variables. Dependency injection provides the ability to pass by reference (or "inject"), service objects into a client (a class or a delegate) at deployment time. This is a top-down approach, in contrast to a bottom-up one wherein the clients discover or create service objects on their own.   COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8

Benefits of "dependency injection" … COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8

 Data Access Object COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8

Data Access Object Context Problem Access to data varies depending on the source of the data. Access to persistent storage, such as to a database, varies greatly depending on the type of storage (relational databases, object-oriented databases, flat files, and so forth) and the vendor implementation. Problem For many applications, persistent storage is implemented with different mechanisms, and there are marked differences in the APIs used to access these different persistent storage mechanisms. Other applications may need to access data that resides on separate systems. An example is where data is provided by services through external systems such as business-to-business (B2B) integration systems, credit card bureau service, and so forth. http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/dataaccessobject-138824.html COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8

Data Access Object Solution Use a Data Access Object (DAO) to abstract and encapsulate all access to the data source. The DAO manages the connection with the data source to obtain and store data. http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/dataaccessobject-138824.html COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8

Business Delegate COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8

Business Delegate Context Problem A multi-tiered, distributed system requires remote method invocations to send and receive data across tiers. Clients are exposed to the complexity of dealing with distributed components. Problem Presentation-tier components interact directly with business services. This direct interaction exposes the underlying implementation details of the business service application program interface (API) to the presentation tier. As a result, the presentation-tier components are vulnerable to changes in the implementation of the business services: When the implementation of the business services change, the exposed implementation code in the presentation tier must change too. http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/businessdelegate-137562.html COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8

Business Delegate Solution Use a Business Delegate to reduce coupling between presentation-tier clients and business services. The Business Delegate hides the underlying implementation details of the business service, such as lookup and access details of the EJB architecture. Another benefit is that the delegate may cache results and references to remote business services. Caching can significantly improve performance, because it limits unnecessary and potentially costly round trips over the network. http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/businessdelegate-137562.html COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8

Business Delegate Client: requests the BusinessDelegate to provide access to the underlying business service. BusinessDelegate: uses a LookupService to locate the required BusinessService component. http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/businessdelegate-137562.html COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8

API and API Engineering COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8

API and API Engineering What is API? Application programming interface (API) is a set of routines, protocols, and tools for building software applications. An API expresses a software component in terms of its operations, inputs, outputs, and underlying types. An API defines functionalities that are independent of their respective implementations. A good API makes it easier to develop a program by providing all the building blocks. A programmer then puts the blocks together. What is API Engineering? API engineering is an application of engineering to the design, development, and maintenance of APIs. COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8

API and API Engineering Web APIs? Web APIs are the defined interfaces through which interactions happen between an enterprise and applications that use its assets. When used in the context of web development, an API is typically defined as a set of HTTP request messages, along with a definition of the structure of response messages, which is usually in an XML or JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) format. Microservice e.g. Microservices in IBM Bluemix https://developer.ibm.com/bluemix/2015/01/19/microservices-bluemix/ COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8

API and API Engineering Web APIs? While "web API" historically has been virtually synonymous for web service, the recent trend (so-called Web 2.0) has been moving away from Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) based web services and service-oriented architecture (SOA) towards more direct representational state transfer (REST) style web resources and resource-oriented architecture (ROA). Part of this trend is related to the Semantic Web movement toward Resource Description Framework (RDF). Web APIs allow the combination of multiple APIs into new applications known as mashups. http://www.programmableweb.com/ COMP9321, 17s1, Week 8
