Spring Framework course 09.01.2012. - 13.01.2012. and 27.02.2012. - 02.03.2012.
Spring Framework is a set of libraries which significantly simplifies the development of the application in Java as stardard or enterprise applications. Spring Framework introduced several novelties to the Java and J2EE worlds such as Inversion of Control (IoC) and Dependency Injection (DI), using programming aspects (Aspect Oriented Programming, AOP) and many others. This course gives a complete overview of the Spring Framework covering beginners to advanced features.
Knowledge of Java and J2EE technologies is a prerequisite.
