Ex. No: 1 Find The IP Address of The Host: Advanced Java Programming Manual

The document provides code examples for Java networking programs, including: 1) A program to find the IP address of a hostname entered by the user. It imports necessary packages, gets the hostname from the user, converts it to an IP address, and displays the result. 2) A program that reads and displays the contents of a web page. It gets the URL from the user, opens an input stream to the URL, reads the content line by line and displays it. 3) Programs for client-server interaction over TCP. The server program waits for a client connection, and they can then send messages to each other until closing the connection. 4) Programs for client-server interaction

Java Networking Viva Questions
1. What is the difference between URL instance and URLConnection
instance?
A URL instance represents the location of a resource, and a
URLConnection

instance

represents

link

for

accessing

communicating with the resource at the location.

2. How do I make a connection to URL?
You obtain a URL instance and then invoke openConnection on
it. URLConnection is an abstract class, which means you can't directly
create instances of it using a constructor. We have to invoke
openConnection method on a URL instance, to get the right kind of
connection for your URL. Eg. URL url;
URLConnection connection;
try{ url = new URL("...");
connection = [Link]();
}catch (MalFormedURLException e) { }
3. What Is a Socket?
A socket is one end-point of a two-way communication link
between two programs running on the network. A socket is bound to a
port number so that the TCP layer can identify the application that
data is destined to be sent. Socket classes are used to represent the
connection between a client program and a server program. The
[Link] package provides two classes--Socket and ServerSocket-which implement the client side of the connection and the server side
of the connection, respectively.
4. What is InetAddress?
InetAddress is a class in java by which we can get IP address of
any machine. Method is "public static InetAddress getLocalHost()"

MSPVL Polytechnic College

Page 15

Advanced Java Programming Manual

5. What is meant by TCP, IP, UDP?
TCP is Tranmission Control Protocol
IP - Internet Protocol
UDP - User Datagram Protocol.
6. What information is needed to create a TCP Socket?
The Local Systems IP Address and Port Number. And the
Remote System's IPAddress and Port Number.
7. What are the two important TCP Socket classes?
Socket and ServerSocket. ServerSocket is used for normal twoway socket communication. Socket class allows us to read and write
through the sockets. getInputStream() and getOutputStream() are the
two methods available in Socket class.
8. When

MalformedURLException

and

UnknownHostException

throws?
When the specified URL is not connected then the URL throw
MalformedURLException and If InetAddress? methods getByName and
getLocalHost are unable to resolve the host name they throw an
UnknownHostException.
9. The API doesn't list any constructors for InetAddress- How do I
create an InetAddress instance?
In case of InetAddress the three methods getLocalHost,
getByName, getByAllName can be used to create instances.
E.g.
InetAddress add1;
InetAddress add2;
try{
add1 = [Link]("[Link]");
add2 = [Link]("[Link]");
}catch(UnknownHostException e){}

MSPVL Polytechnic College

Page 16

Advanced Java Programming Manual

10. Is it possible to get the Local host IP?
Yes. Use InetAddress's getLocalHost method.
11. What's the Factory Method?
Factory methods are merely a convention whereby static
methods in a class return an instance of that class. The InetAddress
class has no visible constructors. To create an InetAddress object, you
have to use one of the available factory methods. In InetAddress the
three methods getLocalHost, getByName, getByAllName can be used
to create instances of InetAddress.
12. Whats the difference between TCP and UDP?
These two protocols differ in the way they carry out the action of
communicating. A TCP protocol establishes a two way connection
between a pair of computers, while the UDP protocol is a one-way
message sender. The common analogy is that TCP is like making a
phone call and carrying on a two-way communication, while UDP is
like mailing a letter.
13. What is the Proxy Server?
A proxy server speaks the client side of a protocol to another
server. This is often required when clients have certain restrictions on
which servers they can connect to. And when several users are hitting
a popular web site, a proxy server can get the contents of the web
server's popular pages once, saving expensive internetwork transfers
while providing faster access to those pages to the clients.
Also, we can get multiple connections for a single server.

JDBC Viva Questions
1. What is JDBC?
JDBC technology is an API (included in both J2SE and J2EE
releases) that provides cross-DBMS connectivity to a wide range of
SQL databases and access to other tabular data sources, such as
spreadsheets or flat files. With a JDBC technology-enabled driver, you
can connect all corporate data even in a heterogeneous environment
2. What are stored procedures?
A stored procedure is a set of statements/commands which
reside in the database. The stored procedure is precompiled. Each
Database has it's own stored procedure language,
3. What is JDBC Driver?
The JDBC Driver provides vendor-specific implementations of
the abstract classes provided by the JDBC API. This driver is used to
connect to the database.
4. What are the different JDBC drivers available?
There are mainly four type of JDBC drivers available. They are:
Type 1 : JDBC-ODBC Bridge Driver
Type 2: Native API Partly Java Driver
Type 3: Network protocol Driver
Type 4: JDBC Net pure Java Driver
5. What is the fastest type of JDBC driver?
Type 4 (JDBC Net pure Java Driver) is the fastest JDBC driver.
Type 1 and Type 3 drivers will be slower than Type 2 drivers (the
database calls are make at least three translations versus two), and
Type 4 drivers are the fastest (only one translation).
6. What are the steps involved in establishing a JDBC connection?
This action involves two steps: loading the JDBC driver and
making the connection.

MSPVL Polytechnic College

Page 29

Advanced Java Programming Manual

7. How can you load the drivers?
Loading the driver or drivers you want to use is very simple and
involves just one line of code. If, for example, you want to use the
JDBC-ODBC Bridge driver, the following code will load it:
[Link]([Link]);
Your driver documentation will give you the class name to use.
For instance, if the class name is [Link], you would load the
driver with the following line of code:
[Link]([Link]);
8. What will [Link] do while loading drivers?
It is used to create an instance of a driver and register it with
the DriverManager. When you have loaded a driver, it is available for
making a connection with a DBMS.
9. How can you make the connection?
To establish a connection you need to have the appropriate
driver connect to the DBMS. The following line of code illustrates the
general idea:
String url = jdbc:odbc:Fred;
Connection con = [Link](url, Fernanda,
J8?);
10. How can you create JDBC statements and what are they?
A Statement object is what sends your SQL statement to the
DBMS. You simply create a Statement object and then execute it,
supplying the appropriate execute method with the SQL statement
you want to send. For a SELECT statement, the method to use is
executeQuery. For statements that create or modify tables, the
method to use is executeUpdate. It takes an instance of an active
connection to create a Statement object. In the following example, we
use our Connection object con to create the Statement object
Statement stmt = [Link]();

MSPVL Polytechnic College

Page 30

Advanced Java Programming Manual

11. How can you retrieve data from the ResultSet?
JDBC returns results in a ResultSet object, so we need to
declare an instance of the class ResultSet to hold our results. The
following code demonstrates declaring the ResultSet object rs.
ResultSet rs = [Link](SELECT COF_NAME, PRICE
FROM

COFFEES);

String s = [Link](COF_NAME);
The method getString is invoked on the ResultSet object rs, so
getString() will retrieve (get) the value stored in the column
COF_NAME in the current row of rs.
12. What are the different types of Statements?
Regular statement (use createStatement method), prepared
statement (use prepareStatement method) and callable statement (use
prepareCall)
13. How can you use PreparedStatement?
This special type of statement is derived from class [Link]
you need a Statement object to execute many times, it will normally
make sense to use a PreparedStatement object instead. The
advantage to this is that in most cases, this SQL statement will be
sent to the DBMS right away, where it will be compiled. As a result,
the PreparedStatement object contains not just an SQL statement,
but an SQL statement that has been precompiled. This means that
when the PreparedStatement is executed, the DBMS can just run the
PreparedStatements SQL statement without having to compile it
first.
PreparedStatement updateSales =
[Link]("UPDATE COFFEES SET SALES = ?
WHERE
COF_NAME LIKE ?");

MSPVL Polytechnic College

Page 31

Advanced Java Programming Manual

14. What does setAutoCommit do?
When a connection is created, it is in auto-commit mode. This
means that each individual SQL statement is treated as a
transaction and will be automatically committed right after it is
executed. The way to allow two or more statements to be grouped
into a transaction is to disable auto-commit mode:
[Link](false);
Once auto-commit mode is disabled, no SQL statements will be
committed until you call the method commit explicitly.
[Link](false);
PreparedStatement updateSales =
[Link]( "UPDATE COFFEES SET SALES = ?
WHERE COF_NAME LIKE ?");
[Link](1,

50);

[Link]

(2, "Colombian");
[Link]();
PreparedStatement updateTotal =
[Link]("UPDATE

COFFEES

SET

TOTAL

TOTAL + ? WHERE COF_NAME LIKE ?");

[Link](1, 50);
[Link](2, "Colombian");
[Link]();
[Link]();
[Link](true);
15. How do you call a stored procedure from JDBC?
The first step is to create a CallableStatement object. As with
Statement an and PreparedStatement objects, this is done with an
open
Connection object. A CallableStatement object contains a call to a
stored procedure.
CallableStatement cs = [Link]("{call SHOW_SUPPLIERS}");
ResultSet rs = [Link]();

MSPVL Polytechnic College

Page 32

Advanced Java Programming Manual

16. Does the JDBC-ODBC Bridge support multiple concurrent open
statements per connection?
[Link] can open only one Statement object per connection
when you are using the JDBC-ODBC Bridge.
17. What is the advantage of using PreparedStatement?
If we are using PreparedStatement the execution time will be
[Link]

PreparedStatement

object

contains

not

just

SQL

statement, but the SQL statement that has been [Link]

means that when the PreparedStatement is executed,the RDBMS can
just run the PreparedStatement's Sql statement without having to
compile it first.
18. How do you handle your own transaction ?
Connection Object has a method called setAutocommit(Boolean
istrue)- Default is true. Set the Parameter to false , and begin your
transaction.
19. What is the normal procedure followed by a java client to access
the db?
The database connection is created in 3 steps:
Find a proper database URL.
Load the database driver.
Ask the Java DriverManager class to open a connection to
your database.
In java code, the steps are realized in code as follows:
Create a properly formatted JDBR URL for your database.
A JDBC URL has the
formjdbc:someSubProtocol://myDatabaseServer/theDatabaseN
ame
[Link]("[Link]");
Connection

conn

[Link]

("[Link]", "databaseLogin","databasePassword");

Advanced Java Programming Manual

20. What is a data source?
A DataSource class brings another level of abstraction than
directly using a connection object. Data source can be referenced by
JNDI. Data Source may point to RDBMS, file System , any DBMS etc.
21. Why can't any one invoke the ResultSet methods afterLast and
beforeFirst when the method next works?
You are probably using a driver implemented for the JDBC 1.0
API. You need to upgrade to a JDBC 2.0 driver that implements
scrollable result sets. Also be sure that your code has created
scrollable result sets and that the DBMS you are using supports
them.
22. What are the steps required to execute a query in JDBC?
First we need to create an instance of a JDBC driver or load
JDBC drivers, then we need to register this driver with DriverManager
class. Then we can open a connection. By using this connection, we
can create a statement object and this object will help us to execute
the query.
23. What is DriverManager ?
DriverManager is a class in [Link] package. It is the basic
service for managing a set of JDBC drivers.
24. What is a ResultSet ?
Result set is a table of data representing a database result set, which
is usually generated by executing a statement that queries the
database.
A ResultSet object maintains a cursor pointing to its current row of
data. Initially the cursor is positioned before the first row. The next
method moves the cursor to the next row, and because it returns
false when there are no more rows in the ResultSet object, it can be
used in a while loop to iterate through the result set.

MSPVL Polytechnic College

Page 34

Advanced Java Programming Manual

25. What is Connection?
Connection class represents a connection (session) with a specific
database. SQL statements are executed and results are returned
within the context of a connection.
A Connection object's database is able to provide information
describing its tables, its supported SQL grammar, its stored
procedures, the capabilities of this connection, and so on. This
information is obtained with the getMetaData method.
26. What is Connection pooling?
Connection pooling is a technique used for sharing server
resources among requesting clients. Connection pooling increases the
performance

Web

applications

reusing

active

database

connections instead of creating a new connection with every request.

Connection pool manager maintains a pool of open database
connections.

Configuring Apache Tomcat Server to run Servlets

1. Download the Apache Tomcat Software

Go to [Link] and download and
unpack the zip file for the current release build of Tomcat 6
2. Set the JAVA_HOME Variable

Next, you must set the JAVA_HOME environment variable to tell

Tomcat where to find Java. Failing to properly set this variable
prevents Tomcat from compiling JSP pages. This variable should list
the base JDK installation directory, not the bin subdirectory.

On Windows XP, you could also go to the Start menu, select Control
Panel, choose System, click on the Advanced tab, press the
Environment

Variables

button

the

bottom,

and

enter

the

JAVA_HOME variable and value directly.

3. Turn on Servlet Reloading
To turn on servlet reloading, edit Edit install_dir/conf/[Link]
and change
<Context>

<Context reloadable="true" privileged="true">

4. Enable the Invoker Servlet

The invoker servlet lets you run servlets without first making changes
to your Web application's deployment descriptor (i.e., the WEBINF/[Link] file). Instead, you just drop your servlet into WEBINF/classes and use the URL [Link]

To enable the invoker servlet, uncomment the following servlet and

servlet-mapping elements in install_dir/conf/[Link]. Do not confuse
this Apache Tomcat-specific [Link] file with the standard one that
goes in the WEB-INF directory of each Web application.
<servlet>
<servlet-name>invoker</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>

</servlet-class>
...
</servlet>
...
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>invoker</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/servlet/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
5. Turn on Directory Listings (Optional)
To make this change, edit install_dir/conf/[Link] and change the
init-param value of listings for the default servlet, as below.
<servlet>
<servlet-name>default</servlet-name>
<servletclass>[Link]</servlet-class>
<init-param>

<param-value>true</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
6. Set the CATALINA_HOME Variable (Optional)
Set the CATALINA_HOME environment variable to refer to the toplevel directory of the Apache Tomcat installation (e.g., C:\apachetomcat-6.0.18). This variable identifies the Tomcat installation
directory to the server.

Servlet Viva Questions
1. What is Servlet?
A servlet is a Java technology-based Web component, managed
by a container called servlet container or servlet engine, that
generates dynamic content and interacts with web clients via a
request\/response paradigm.
2. Why is Servlet so popular?
Because servlets are platform-independent Java classes that are
compiled to platform-neutral byte code that can be loaded dynamically
into and run by a Java technology-enabled Web server.
3. What is servlet container?
The servlet container is a part of a Web server or application
server that provides the network services over which requests and
responses are sent, decodes MIME-based requests, and formats
MIME-based responses. A servlet container also contains and
manages servlets through their lifecycle.
4. Explain the life cycle methods of a Servlet?
The [Link] interface defines the three methods
known as life-cycle [Link] void init(ServletConfig config)
throws

ServletExceptionpublic

void

service(

ServletRequest

req,

ServletResponse res) throws ServletException, IOExceptionpublic void

destroy()First the servlet is constructed, then initialized wih the init()
[Link] request from client are handled initially by the service()
method before delegating to the doXxx() methods in the case of
[Link] servlet is removed from service, destroyed with the
destroy() methid, then garbaged collected and finalized.

MSPVL Polytechnic College

Page 52

Advanced Java Programming Manual

5. What is the difference between the getRequestDispatcher(String
path)

method of [Link] interface and

[Link] interface?
The getRequestDispatcher(String path) method of javax. servlet.
ServletRequest interface accepts parameter the path to the resource to
be included or forwarded to, which can be relative to the request of
the calling [Link] the path begins with a "/" it is interpreted as
relative to the current context [Link] getRequestDispatcher(String
path) method of [Link] interface cannot accepts
relative [Link] path must sart with a "/" and are interpreted as
relative to curent context root.
6. Explain the directory structure of a web application.
The directory structure of a web application consists of two
parts. A private directory called WEB-INF, A public resource directory
which contains public resource [Link]-INF folder consists of
[Link] [Link] directory [Link] directory
7. What are the common mechanisms used for session tracking?
CookiesSSL sessionsURL- rewriting
8. Explain ServletContext.
ServletContext interface is a window for a servlet to view it's
environment.A servlet can use this interface to get information such
as

initialization

parameters

for

the

web

applicationor

servlet

container's [Link] web application has one and only one

ServletContext and is accessible to all active resource of that
application.
9. What is the difference between Difference between doGet() and
doPost()?
A doGet() method is limited with 2k of data to be sent, and
doPost() method doesn't have this limitation.A request string for
doGet()

looks

the

following:

[Link]
MSPVL Polytechnic College

Page 53

Advanced Java Programming Manual

method call doesn't need a long text tail after a servlet name in a
[Link] parameters are stored in a request itself, not in a request
string, and it's impossible to guess the data transmitted to a servlet
only looking at a request string.
10. What is the difference between HttpServlet and GenericServlet?
A GenericServlet has a service() method aimed to handle
[Link] extends GenericServlet and adds support for
doGet(),

doPost(),

doHead()

methods

(HTTP

1.0)

plus

doPut(),

doOptions(), doDelete(), doTrace() methods (HTTP 1.1).Both these

classes are abstract.
11. When a client request is sent to the servlet container, how does
the container choose which servlet to invoke?
The servlet container determines which servlet to invoke based
on the configuration of its servlets, and calls it with objects
representing the request and response.
12. If a servlet is not properly initialized, what exception may be
thrown?
During initialization or service of a request, the servlet instance
can throw an UnavailableException or a ServletException.
13. Given the request path below, which are context path, servlet
path and path info?
/bookstore/education/[Link]
context path: /bookstore
servlet path: /education
path info: /[Link]
14. What is filter? Can filter be used as request or response?
A filter is a reusable piece of code that can transform the
content of HTTP requests,responses, and header information. Filters
do not generally create a response or respond to a request as servlets
do, rather they modify or adapt the requests for a resource, and
modify or adapt responses from a resource.
MSPVL Polytechnic College

Page 54

Advanced Java Programming Manual

15. When using servlets to build the HTML, you build a DOCTYPE
line, why do you do that?
I know all major browsers ignore it even though the HTML 3.2
and 4.0 specifications require it. But building a DOCTYPE line tells
HTML validators which version of HTML you are using so they know
which specification to check your document against. These validators
are valuable debugging services, helping you catch HTML syntax
errors.
16. Request parameter How to find whether a parameter exists in
the request object?
boolean hasFoo = !([Link]("foo") == null ||
[Link]("foo").equals(""));
boolean hasParameter =
[Link]().contains(theParameter);
17. How can I send user authentication information while making
URL Connection?
You'll want to use [Link] and
set all the appropriate headers to HTTP authorization.
18. Can we use the constructor, instead of init(), to initialize
servlet?
Yes , of course you can use the constructor instead of init().
There's nothing to stop you. But you shouldn't. The original reason for
init() was that ancient versions of Java couldn't dynamically invoke
constructors with arguments, so there was no way to give the
constructur a ServletConfig. That no longer applies, but servlet
containers still will only call your no-arg constructor. So you won't
have access to a ServletConfig or ServletContext.
19. How can a servlet refresh automatically if some new data has
entered the database?
You can use a client-side Refresh or Server Push

MSPVL Polytechnic College

Page 55

Advanced Java Programming Manual

20. The code in a finally clause will never fail to execute, right?
Using [Link](1); in try block will not allow finally code to
execute.
21. What mechanisms are used by a Servlet Container to maintain
session information?
Cookies, URL rewriting, and HTTPS protocol information are
used to maintain session information
22. Difference between GET and POST?
In GET your entire form submission can be encapsulated in one
URL, like a hyperlink. query length is limited to 260 characters, not
secure, faster, quick and easy.
In POST Your name/value pairs inside the body of the HTTP
request, which makes for a cleaner URL and imposes no size
limitations on the form's output. It is used to send a chunk of data to
the server to be processed, more versatile, most secure.
23. What is session?
The session is an object used by a servlet to track a user's
interaction with a

Web application across multiple HTTP requests.

24. What is servlet mapping?

The servlet mapping defines an association between a URL
pattern and a servlet. The mapping is used to map requests to
servlets.
25. What is servlet context?
The servlet context is an object that contains a servlet's view of
the Web application within which the servlet is running. Using the
context, a servlet can log events, obtain URL references to resources,
and set and store attributes that other servlets in the context can use.
(answer supplied by Sun's tutorial).
26. Which interface must be implemented by all servlets?
Servlet interface.
MSPVL Polytechnic College

Page 56

Advanced Java Programming Manual

27. Explain the life cycle of Servlet.
Loaded(by the container for first request or on start up if config
file suggests load-on-startup), initialized( using init()), service(service()
or doGet() or doPost()..), destroy(destroy()) and unloaded.
28. When is the servlet instance created in the life cycle of servlet?
What is the importance of configuring a servlet?
An instance of servlet is created when the servlet is loaded for
the first time in the container. Init() method is used to configure this
servlet instance. This method is called only once in the life time of a
servlet, hence it makes sense to write all those configuration details
about a servlet which are required for the whole life of a servlet in this
method.
29. Why don't we write a constructor in a servlet?
Container writes a no argument constructor for our servlet.
30. When we don't write any constructor for the servlet, how does
container create an instance of servlet?
Container creates instance of servlet by calling
[Link](className).newInstance().
31. Once the destroy() method is called by the container, will the
servlet

immediately

destroyed?

What

happens

the

tasks(threads) that the servlet might be executing at that time?

Yes, but Before calling the destroy() method, the servlet
container waits for the remaining threads that are executing the
servlets service() method to finish.
32. What is the difference between callling a RequestDispatcher
using ServletRequest and ServletContext?
We can give relative URL when we use ServletRequest and not
while using ServletContext.

MSPVL Polytechnic College

Page 57

Advanced Java Programming Manual

33. Why is it that we can't give relative URL's when using
[Link]() when we can use the same
while calling [Link]()?
Since ServletRequest has the current request path to evaluae
the relative path while ServletContext does not.
34. What are the uses of Servlets?
A servlet can handle multiple requests concurrently, and can
synchronize requests. This allows servlets to support systems such as
on-line conferencing. Servlets can forward requests to other servers
and servlets. Thus servlets can be used to balance load among several
servers that mirror the same content, and to partition a single logical
service over several servers, according to task type or organizational
boundaries.
35. Whats the Servlet Interface?
The central abstraction in the Servlet API is the Servlet
interface. All servlets implement this interface, either directly or, more
commonly, by extending a class that implements it such as
HttpServlet. Servlets>Generic Servlet>HttpServlet>MyServlet. The
Servlet interface declares, but does not implement, methods that
manage the servlet and its communications with clients.

EJB Viva Questions
1. What

makes

J2EE

suitable

for

distributed

multitiered

Applications?
The J2EE platform uses a multitiered distributed application
[Link] logic is divided into components according to
function, and the various application components that make up a
J2EE application are installed on different machines depending on the
tier in the multitiered J2EE environment to which the application
component belongs.
The J2EE application parts are:
Client-tier components run on the client machine.
Web-tier components run on the J2EE server.
Business-tier components run on the J2EE server.
Enterprise information system (EIS)-tier software runs on the
EIS server.
2. What is J2EE?
J2EE is an environment for developing and deploying enterprise
[Link] J2EE platform consists of a set of services,
application programming interfaces (APIs), and protocols that provide
the functionality for developing multitiered, web-based applications.
3. What are the components of J2EE application?
A J2EE component is a self-contained functional software unit
that is assembled into a J2EE application with its related classes and
files and communicates with other components.
The J2EE specification defines the following J2EE components:
Application clients and applets are client components.
Java Servlet and Java Server Pages technology components
are web components.
Enterprise JavaBeans components (enterprise beans) are
business components.
Resource adapter components provided by EIS and tool
vendors.

[Link] a Web, enterprise bean, or application client

component can be executed, it must be assembled into a J2EE
application and deployed into its container.
6. What are container services?
A container is a runtime support of a system-level entity.
Containers provide components with services such as:
lifecycle management
security
deployment
threading
7. What is the web container?
Servlet and JSP containers are collectively referred to as Web
containers. It manages the execution of JSP page and servlet
components for J2EE applications. Web components and their
container run on the J2EE server.
8. What is Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) container?
It manages the execution of enterprise beans for J2EE
applications. Enterprise beans and their container run on the J2EE
server.

9. How do we package J2EE components?
J2EE components are packaged separately and bundled into a
J2EE application for deployment. Each component, its related files
such as GIF and HTML files or server-side utility classes, and a
deployment descriptor are assembled into a module and added to the
J2EE application. A J2EE application is composed of one or more
enterprise bean, Web, or application client component modules. The
final enterprise solution can use one J2EE application or be made up
of two or more J2EE applications, depending on design requirements.
A J2EE application and each of its modules has its own deployment
descriptor. A deployment descriptor is an XML document with [Link]
extension that describes a components deployment settings.
10. What is a thin client?
A thin client is a lightweight interface to the application that
does not have such operations like query databases, execute complex
business rules, or connect to legacy applications.
11. What are types of J2EE clients?
Following are the types of J2EE clients:
Applets
Application clients
Java Web Start-enabled rich clients, powered by Java Web
Start technology.
Wireless clients, based on Mobile Information Device Profile
(MIDP) technology.
12. What is deployment descriptor?
A deployment descriptor is an Extensible Markup Language
(XML) text-based file with [Link] extension that describes a
components deployment settings. A J2EE application and each of its
modules has its own deployment descriptor. For example, an
enterprise bean module deployment descriptor declares transaction
attributes and security authorizations for an enterprise bean. Because
deployment descriptor information is declarative, it can be changed
MSPVL Polytechnic College

Page 148

Advanced Java Programming Manual

without modifying the bean source code. At run time, the J2EE server
reads the deployment descriptor and acts upon the component
accordingly.
13. What is the EAR file?
An EAR file is a standard JAR file with [Link] extension, named
from Enterprise ARchive file. A J2EE application with all of its
modules is delivered in EAR file.
14. What is J2EE Connector?
The J2EE Connector API is used by J2EE tools vendors and
system integrators to create resource adapters that support access to
enterprise information systems that can be plugged into any J2EE
product. Each type of database or EIS has a different resource
adapter. Note: A resource adapter is a software component that allows
J2EE application components to access and interact with the
underlying resource manager. Because a resource adapter is specific
to its resource manager, there is typically a different resource adapter
for each type of database or enterprise information system.
15. What is Java Naming and Directory Service?
The JNDI provides naming and directory functionality. It
provides applications with methods for performing standard directory
operations, such as associating attributes with objects and searching
for objects using their attributes. Using JNDI, a J2EE application can
store and retrieve any type of named Java object. Because JNDI is
independent of any specific implementations, applications can use
JNDI to access multiple naming and directory services, including
existing naming and directory services such as LDAP, NDS, DNS, and
NIS.
16. What is the Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE)?
The Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) is a set of
coordinated specifications and practices that together enable solutions
for developing, deploying, and managing multi-tier server-centric
MSPVL Polytechnic College

Advanced Java Programming Manual

applications. Building on the Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition
(J2SE), the J2EE platform adds the capabilities necessary to provide a
complete, stable, secure, and fast Java platform to the enterprise
level. It provides value by significantly reducing the cost and
complexity of developing and deploying multi-tier solutions, resulting
in services that can be rapidly deployed and easily enhanced.
17. What are the main benefits of the J2EE platform?
The J2EE platform provides the following:
Complete Web services support:
Faster solutions delivery time to market:
Freedom of choice:
Simplified connectivity:
18. What technologies are included in the J2EE platform?
The primary technologies in the J2EE platform are: Java API for
XML-Based RPC (JAX-RPC), Java Server Pages, Java Servlets,
Enterprise JavaBeans components, J2EE Connector Architecture,
J2EE Management Model, J2EE Deployment API, Java Management
Extensions (JMX), J2EE Authorization Contract for Containers, Java
API for XML Registries (JAXR), Java Message Service (JMS), Java
Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI), Java Transaction API (JTA),
CORBA, and JDBC data access API.
19. What is the J2EE 1.4 SDK?
The Java 2 SDK, Enterprise Edition 1.4 (J2EE 1.4 SDK) is a
complete package for developing and deploying J2EE 1.4 applications.
The J2EE 1.4 SDK contains the Sun Java System Application Server
Platform Edition 8, the J2SE 1.4.2 SDK, J2EE 1.4 platform API
documentation, and a slew of samples to help developers learn about
the J2EE platform and technologies and prototype J2EE applications.
The J2EE 1.4 SDK is free for both development and deployment.

20. What is the J2EE module?
A J2EE module consists of one or more J2EE components for
the same container type and one component deployment descriptor of
that type. The four types of J2EE modules are
Application client module
Web module
Enterprise JavaBeans module
Resource adapter module
21. What does application client module contain?
The application client module contains class files, an application
client deployment descriptor
Application client modules are packaged as JAR files with a .jar
extension.
22. What does web module contain?
The web module contains: JSP files, class files for servlets, GIF
and HTML files, and a Web deployment descriptor.
Web modules are packaged as JAR files with a .war (Web
ARchive) extension.
23. What are the differences between Ear, Jar and War files? Under
what circumstances should we use each one?
There are no structural differences between the files; they are all
archived using zip-jar compression. However, they are intended
for different purposes.
Jar files (files with a .jar extension) are intended to hold generic
libraries of Java classes, resources, auxiliary files, etc.
War files (files with a .war extension) are intended to contain
complete Web applications. In this context, a Web application is
defined as a single group of files, classes, resources, .jar files
that can be packaged and accessed as one servlet context.
Ear files (files with a .ear extension) are intended to contain
complete enterprise applications. In this context, an enterprise

MSPVL Polytechnic College

Advanced Java Programming Manual

application is defined as a collection of .jar files, resources,
classes, and multiple Web applications.
Each type of file (.jar, .war, .ear) is processed uniquely by
application servers, servlet containers, EJB containers, etc.
24. What is the difference between Session bean and Entity bean ?
The Session bean and Entity bean are two main parts of EJB
container.
Session Bean
Represents a workflow on behalf of a client
One-to-one logical mapping to a client.
Created and destroyed by a client
Not permanent objects
Lives its ejb container(generally) does not survive system
shut down
Two types: stateless and stateful beans
Entity Bean
Represents persistent data and behavior of this data
can be shared among multiple clients
Persists across multiple invocations
Findable permanent objects
Outlives its ejb container, survives system shutdown
Two types: container managed persistence(cmp) and bean
managed
Persistence(bmp)
