OracleAS 10g R3: Build J2EE Applications I

During this course, you are introduced to the concepts and practical techniques of building J2EE applications. The practices involve building an end-to-end application using JavaServer Faces, Oracle TopLink, and Enterprise JavaBeans.

This first course about J2EE development focuses particularly on client applications. In addition to learning core J2EE skills, you also utilize Oracle Application Development Framework (ADF) to build components.

Learn To:

	Build JSF pages
	Apply persistence with EJB 3.0
