Java Programming Transparency No. 1-8 What is J2EE ?  source source  What is the Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE)? a platform that enables solutions for developing, deploying and managing multi-tier server-centric applications. Extend J2SE to a complete, stable, secure, fast Java platform to the enterprise level. A platform which significantly reduces the cost and complexity of developing multi-tier solutions, results in services that can be rapidly deployed and easily enhanced.

Java Programming Transparency No. 1-9 Benefits of J2EE 1. Complete Web services support. 2. Faster solutions delivery time to market. Enterprise infrastructure and concerns provided and solved by j2ee. Developers need only focus on writing business logic. 3. Freedom of choice. System assembled from standard components which can be supplied by various vendors. 4. Simplified connectivity. Supply standard to connect legacy systems, enterprise information system, and bring capability to web and mobile devices. 5. Reduce TCO(total cost of ownership) and avoid single-source for software needs of enterprises.

Java Programming Transparency No What is J2ME ?  1.What is the Java 2 Platform, Micro Edition (J2ME)?J2ME The Java TM 2 Platform, Micro Edition is the edition of the Java 2 platform targeted at consumer electronics and embedded devices. The J2ME technology consists of a virtual machine (KVM) and a set of APIs suitable for providing tailored runtime environments for consumer and embedded electronics.  Configurations v.s. profiles  Device characteristics: memory size / processor size and depth of display screen (UI) power consumption (battery-based) networking capability (limited, not TCP/IP based?)

Java Programming Transparency No Features of the java language: Java is  simple  object-oriented  distributed  interpreted  robust  secure  architecture-neutral  portable  high performance  multithreaded  dynamic

Java Programming Transparency No Java is Simple  Intentionally created to be syntactically similar to C/C++  Eliminates traditionally troublesome features of C/C++ Pointer arithmetic Multiple inheritance Implicit type coercions Explicit memory management Preprocessor  Eliminates features of C/C++ struct typedef union enum (recovered in jdk5.0) (Programmer controlled) operator overloading  Features included as part of base language: Threads Exception handling

Java Programming Transparency No Java is Object-oriented  Systems are built from sets of classes  Classes are instantiated at runtime to give objects  Objects communicate via messages passing  Everything is part of a class  supported OO Concepts: Data abstraction and Encapsulation Inheritance Polymorphism Dynamic Binding e.g. variable of Object type can hold everything  Logical cluster of classes == package

Java Programming Transparency No Java is a Distributed language  Network programming support built into JDK class library: TCP sockets UDP packets IP addresses URLs RMI (Remote Method Invocation) Web Service  Security features designed into language  Network programming facilities are one of the language's best features.

Java Programming Transparency No Java is an Interpreted language  Source code is initially compiled ( javac ) into architecture-neutral byte-codes  Byte-codes are interpreted by the java virtual machine (JVM) ( java or Netscape)  Dynamic linking/loading (at run time)  (Just In Time) JIT compilers lead to a large performance increase in compilation and runtime execution

Java Programming Transparency No Java is Robust  Strongly-typed language (cf Smalltalk and VisualBasic)  Compile-time and runtime checking  No pointer arithmetic  Exception handling  Automatic memory management

Java Programming Transparency No Java is secure  Designed with security in mind.  Allow users to download untrusted code over a network and run it in a secure environment in which it cannot do any harm.  Configurable security levels and restrictions.  subjected to intense scrutiny by security experts with [potentially serious ] bugs found and fixed. become a big news if new bugs found!!  One of the best mainstream platforms with the strongest security guarantee.

Java Programming Transparency No Java is Architecture-neutral  Byte-codes are architecture neutral  Performance suffers by using bytecodes

Java Programming Transparency No Java is portable  Primitive type sizes are explicit - not architecture dependent  Strings and characters are (16-bit) Unicode compliant easier for internationalization.  GUI libraries give a native graphic library- independent mechanism for creating quality graphical interfaces (sort of) "They gave us a library that is good for writing programs that look equally mediocre on the different systems." (Core Java, page 9)

Java Programming Transparency No High performance  Interpreting leads to quicker development cycle  Depends what you compare it to "Slightly faster than VB" - (Core Java, page 9) JITC(Just-In-Time Compiler) help greatly in this respect Sun’s Java HotSpot is Newest high performace JIT compiler.  Can use native code for mission-critical performance sections of code JNI: Java Native Interface Sacrifice portability.

Java Programming Transparency No Multithreaded  Based on well-known 20 year old Hoare monitor synchronization  Thread support built into language  Thread synchronization primitives supplied  Garbage collector runs permanently as a low priority background thread

Java Programming Transparency No Dynamic  Class linking, layout, name resolution and object references not resolved until run-time  Runtime Type Information (RTTI) available Can check the type of objects at run-time java.reflect.* package  Class class for dynamic instantiation Can create objects of types unkown until runtime. String sexClassName = getSex(); Object p = Class.forName(sexClassName).instance(); If(p instanceof Male) {…} else if (p instanceof Female) { … } else {… }

Java Programming Transparency No An Example /** * The HelloJava class implements an application that * simply displays "Hello Java!" to the standard output. */ class HelloJava { public static void main(String[] args) { // Display "Hello Java!" System.out.println("Hello Java!"); }

Java Programming Transparency No History of Java  Green Project (1990) Consumer device operating software Requirements: small size, robust, portable, extremely reliable,real- time performance  Oak Originally used C++, then realized a new language was needed Original requirements same as for current language  Java (1993) Intended market never eventuated WWW starting to takeoff Language design "based on" many current OO languages (e.g., C++, Eiffel, Smalltalk, Cedar/Mesa, Objective C) 1995/5/23 Sun launched Java JDK 1.0 released early 1996/1/23 ( 212 classes / 8 pkgs)
