Advanced Java Training

Duration: 5 days
Course code: SS-JAV-010

Audience

This course is designed for experienced Web application developers and professionals:

  • System Designers
  • Application Developers
Prerequisites

Experience with Java is essential.

Description

The Advanced Java training course is designed for software professionals seeking to design and develop applications using the latest Java Standard Edition specification. Based on SciSpike's well-received training methodologies, the course provides for a rapid, efficient (and, yes, intense) immersion into advanced Java topics.

The Advanced Java training course is a five-day course and covers Java Foundation Classes (JFC), Swing Components, JavaBeans, Reflection, Network Programming, Remote Method Invocation (RMI), Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) and Java Security.

Participants will master the fundamentals of graphical user interface development using the Java Swing library. Using either Rational Application Developer (RAD) or Eclipse, attendees build, package, deploy and test JavaBeans. This course covers topics in distributed computing using both the Java network class library and the RMI framework. Database programming topics also include transactions, query execution with ad-hoc queries, compiled queries and stored procedure statements using JDBC. We also cover advanced JDBC topics, such as distributed transactions, scrollable result sets etc. provided in the latest JDBC API. The Java security model and the class library are also covered in sufficient detail.

The Advanced Java training course consists of a large number of fully worked out example code illustrating various concepts introduced during the course. The concepts are further reinforced through the use of well-crafted exercises at appropriate points throughout the course.

Objectives
