Preface

Java EE 7, the latest version of the Java EE specification, adds several new features to simplify enterprise application development. New versions of existing Java EE APIs have been included in this latest version of Java EE. JSF 2.2 has been updated to better support wizard-like interfaces via FacesFlows and has been enhanced to better support HTML5. NetBeans supports JPA 2.1 features such as Bean Validation and many others. EJB session beans can be automatically generated by NetBeans, allowing us to easily leverage EJB features such as transactions and concurrency. CDI advanced features such as qualifiers, stereotypes, and others can be easily implemented via NetBeans' wizards. JMS 2.0 has been greatly simplified, allowing us to quickly and easily develop messaging applications. Java EE includes a new Java API for JSON Processing (JSON-P), allowing us to quickly and easily process JSON data. NetBeans includes several features to allow us to quickly and easily develop both RESTful and SOAP-based web services.

This book will guide you through all the NetBeans features that make the development of enterprise Java EE 7 applications a breeze.
