[request_ebook] Pro Spring 3

Founded by SpringSource, the Spring Framework continues to be the leading and most adopted enterprise Java and Java EE application development framework.

This book also covers what’s new and available in Spring 3, specifically Java 6 annotations (support for declaring factory methods) and generics, support for Java EE 6 features like Java Persistence API (JPA 2), JavaServer Faces (JSF 2) support, REST in Spring MVC, possible unified Expression Language (EL) (as already seen in Spring Web Flow), OXM support in Spring Web Services, the SpringSecurity framework (formerly Acegi), and much more.
