Volume 2

This first volume of the book focuses on core technologies: the servlet and JSP capabilities that you are likely to use in almost every real-life project. The second volume focuses on advanced capabilities: features that you use less frequently but that are extremely valuable in complex applications.

These topics include servlet and JSP filters, declarative and programmatic Web application security, custom tag libraries, the JSP Standard Tag Library (JSTL), Apache Struts, JavaServer Faces (JSF), Java Architecture for XML Binding (JAXB), database connection pooling, advanced JDBC features, and use of Ant for deployment.
