Java EE 8 Development with Eclipse - Third Edition

By: Ram Kulkarni

Overview of this book

Java EE is one of the most popular tools for enterprise application design and development. With recent changes to Java EE 8 specifications, Java EE application development has become a lot simpler with the new specifications, some of which compete with the existing specifications. This guide provides a complete overview of developing highly performant, robust and secure enterprise applications with Java EE with Eclipse. The book begins by exploring different Java EE technologies and how to use them (JSP, JSF, JPA, JDBC, EJB, and more), along with suitable technologies for different scenarios. You will learn how to set up the development environment for Java EE applications and understand Java EE specifications in detail, with an emphasis on examples. The book takes you through deployment of an application in Tomcat, GlassFish Servers, and also in the cloud. It goes beyond the basics and covers topics like debugging, testing, deployment, and securing your Java EE applications. You'll also get to know techniques to develop cloud-ready microservices in Java EE.

The Eclipse subversion plugin


In this section, we will learn how to install and use the SVN Eclipse plugin. We will create a small project and see how to check in a project to SVN from within Eclipse. We will also see how to sync with the existing SVN repository.

You will need access to an SVN repository to follow the steps in this chapter. If you do not have access to an SVN repository, you can choose from some of the free SVN offerings online. This book does not promote or suggest using any particular online SVN hosting, but for the purpose of explaining SVN Eclipse plugin features, the author has used https://riouxsvn.com. However, the plugin would work the same way with any SVN server.
