Spring Core

Description

Our course provides an introduction to the Spring Core framework. It covers the major aspects of the Spring Core framework: the inversion of control (IoC), Spring Expression Language (SpEL) and aspect oriented programming (AoP) applications constructing.  

The course shows the basic principles of the IoC, SpEL and AoP application development on the Spring platform. During the course the attendees will also learn how to write their own applications using the Spring Core framework.

Inversion of control (IoC), Spring Expression Language (SpEL) and Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP) are modern techniques that help to speed up the development of programs. They are generally designated for enterprise development.

After presenting the architecture of Spring Core, the first modules concentrate on Inversion of Control (also known as Dependency Injection). The basic idea is to eliminate the dependency of application components from certain implementation and to delegate IoC container rights to control classes instantiation. This may be done using XML configuration, annotations or by developing Java code.

The Spring Expression Language (SpEL) is a powerful expression language that supports querying and manipulating an object graph at runtime. SpEL expressions can be used with XML or annotation based configuration metadata. Aspect-oriented programming (AOP) is a programming paradigm that aims to increase modularity by allowing the separation of cross-cutting concerns.
