Rating: - Component and J(2)EE development classic
By now a classic, this book eloquently expressed how the Corba component design committees came up with an EJB specification that was not an ideal cornerstone for all J(2)EE applications. Although very fit for selected purposes the early EJB specs had to evolve to EJB 3 to really leverage the power of Java. Fundamentals of component based flexibility often lost on OO design are explained well, regardless of whether one decides to use Spring the alleviate the risks around it.
Rating: - its good but not very much intresting
bought this book long back,
kind of boarting book, nothing is writen very clearly,
AOP part is horrible, its so boaring whenever i try reading it
after reading one or two page i just fall to sleep,
Rating: - The book needs an update
This book introduces the Spring framework strategy as an alternative to J2EE which is GREAT. I noticed this book is far behind while comparing to the latest updates to Spring framework. Now, I am looking for updated code example and how-tos.
Rating: - NOT suitable for SE and developer
It does not fit for Software Engineer or Developer at all. EJB has bad performance though, it is a well-known fact, no need to say lots on the point. This book is like an advertisement for Spring Framework, but no directly and clear outline of Spring. From beginning to end, the book wrote lots verbose concepts about java, no real touch of authentic content. Although Rod is famous and experience on Java, this book might be an artitechure knowledge book, not good for level below intermedia java developers and SEs.
Rating: - Good book
This is a fine book. I appreciate the practical insight and opinions expressed by the author. Sometimes it seems that he justifies his points by using the same rational he attacks in other technologies like EJB. Not that I am a fan of EJB, having used it in projects and found it wanting.
