----------------------------------- blackrobe Wed Apr 20, 2011 7:00 pm Web Programming Questions ----------------------------------- Hey guys, I was hoping if anyone could help me answer these questions about web programming, got my final exam tomorrow and I'm currently running out of time practicing how to use Ajax, struts, and servlets to construct dynamic web pages...but these questions are worrying me...any help is really appreciated and the more descriptive the answers are the better it helps me understand..thanks! Describe web applications, CGI, and the role of Java Describe benefits of Java servlet technology Define three-tier architecture Define Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture Describe why Servlets are not the whole solution Describe essentials of JSPs State the fundamentals and reasons for MVC architecture State the difference between HTTP 1.0 and HTTP 1.1 Give more details of the HTTP protocol State the fundamentals of HTML forms State the fundamentals of the HttpServlet and related APIs How does that manage client sessions and cookies Understand the purpose and structure of deployment descriptors What is a context What is Control context root and servlet mapping How are annotations used to configure servlets State the benefits, and weaknesses of JSPs Describe JSP technology, the conversion of JSPs to servlets, and the lifecycle of JSPs What are filters and how can we use them in web applications What are the roles of JDBC and JPA What are the interactions that are essential to asynchronous web pages What is the role of the container in security Describe and implement four authentication models ----------------------------------- chrisbrown Wed Apr 20, 2011 7:08 pm RE:Web Programming Questions ----------------------------------- Why don't you start by answering what you can, and asking specific questions about what you can't. I need a JSP refresher for the summer so I'll help you out as much as I can. ----------------------------------- Tony Wed Apr 20, 2011 7:09 pm RE:Web Programming Questions ----------------------------------- They all sound like definition questions... ----------------------------------- blackrobe Wed Apr 20, 2011 7:52 pm Re: Web Programming Questions ----------------------------------- They all sound like definition questions... Yea they are, unfortunately it seems like the exam will be 20%-30% questions like these, and the rest is programming, so I'm focusing more on the programming and getting everything right, but still wanna get those solved as to when I'm done I can take a look... Why don't you start by answering what you can, and asking specific questions about what you can't. I need a JSP refresher for the summer so I'll help you out as much as I can. I answered a few...like CGI is is one of the earliest scripting languages to generate dynamic content but its platform dependent and lacks scalability. As for servlets and web applications, provide flexibility and provides more control over a workflow of an interactive application where most content generating is event-driven..... ----------------------------------- Tony Wed Apr 20, 2011 8:25 pm RE:Web Programming Questions ----------------------------------- CGI is something else. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Gateway_Interface
