itemLabel=Menu11" action=welcome />
1.Tomahawk jscookMenu tag: <t:navigationMenuItem id=nmi1_2"
itemLabel=menu12" action=welcome />
This tag is used to create a menu <t:navigationMenuItem id=nmi1_3"
component in a web page. To display the itemLabel=menu13" action=welcome />
items navigationMenuItem or <t:navigationMenuItem id=nmi1_4"
navigationMenuItems tag are used. In the itemLabel=menu14" split=true>
following example, we have used theme <t:navigationMenuItem id=nmi14_1"
that looks just as in Internet Explorer. itemLabel=menu141" action=welcome />
<t:navigationMenuItem id=nmi14_2"
itemLabel=menu142" action=welcome/>
Code Description: <t:navigationMenuItem id=nmi14_3"
itemLabel=menu143" action=welcome />
The layout attribute provides the layout <t:navigationMenuItem id=nmi14_4"
for the components. The values for this itemLabel=menu144"action=welcome/>
attribute can be hbr, hbl, hur, hul, vbr, vbl, </t:navigationMenuItem>

specify the theme to be applied on the </t:jscookMenu>
component. The values for this attribute </h:form>
may be ThemeIE, ThemeMiniBlack, </f:view>
ThemeOffice, ThemePanel. ThemeIE </body>
value gives a look like Internet Explorer. </html>
The navigationMenuItem tag is used to
provide the menu items and sub items. The
label for the item is set using itemLabel
attribute and the action to perform is
specified in the action attribute. The icon
displayed before the item is set to the icon
attribute. Its split attribute is used when
we want its sub items.

along with a button which when clicked
renders a popup calendar. We can select
any date and it is displayed in the input box
in our required format. A help text can also
be given in the input box to help the user

to input the date in the specified format. monthYearRowClass=yearRowStyle

4. Tomahawk inputHtml tag: Rendered Output :
This tag is used to create the Kupu text

editor. To know about this you can visit
the web site http://kupu.oscom.org. The
important thing about this tag is that it
supports one editor per page. You can
use multiple editors if they are placed in
different tags but rendered only one at a
time, for example, in many tabbed panes.
You can customize this editor according to
your requirement. You can add different
tool boxes if required. Different look and
style can be given by the use of CSS.

VI. Building using the new maven

repository
While building the maven project, all the

repositories should be downloaded using
the new repository. The console will show
the server maven uses as shown below:
VII. Installing artifacts to the

repository :
We can use the web UI or maven command

line to install the artifacts. Installation
process through the web UI is simpler and
faster and does not require any change in
the configuration. While installation through
the command line requires changes in the
configuration in settings.xml and then we
can use it in other scripts.
Login into your new repository through the Installing artifacts using the web UI: Steps

file) and deploy using Artifact Deployer.
It provides an advance search facility that 2 If you upload the jar file then the

Installing artifacts from maven command

line:Using the command 'maven clean

the artifact to the local repository. We need
to add the additional configuration section

example with Maven2
Here I will show, how to build a very

simple example that uses java persistence
API. Maven2 highly simplifies the build
process, all the required libraries are
downloaded automatically only when it
really requires.
1. Create a java class (lets take it

Message.java ), where you map java class/
properties to database table/fields. Java
persistence annotations will do this job for
us:
package hello;
import javax.persistence.*;
@Entity
@Table(name = "MESSAGES")
public class Message {
@Id @GeneratedValue @Column(name =
"MESSAGE_ID")
private Long id;

@Column(name = "MESSAGE_TEXT") HelloWorld.java

private String text; package hello;
@ManyToOne(cascade = CascadeType.ALL) import java.util.*;
@JoinColumn(name = import javax.persistence.*;
"NEXT_MESSAGE_ID") public class HelloWorld {
private Message nextMessage; public static void main(String[] args) {
// Start EntityManagerFactory
public Message() {} EntityManagerFactory emf =
Persistence.createEntity
public Message(String text) { ManagerFactory("helloworld");
this.text = text; // First unit of work
} EntityManager em =
emf.createEntityManager();
public Long getId() { EntityTransaction tx =
return id; em.getTransaction();
} tx.begin();
private void setId(Long id) { Message message = new Message("Hello

this.id = id; World with JPA");
} em.persist(message);
public String getText() { message = new Message("This is message

return text; 2");
} em.persist(message);
public void setText(String text) {
this.text = text; message = new Message("This is message
} 3");
em.persist(message);
public Message getNextMessage() { tx.commit();
return nextMessage; em.close();
} // Second unit of work
EntityManager newEm =
public void setNextMessage(Message emf.createEntityManager();
nextMessage) { EntityTransaction newTx =
this.nextMessage = nextMessage; newEm.getTransaction();
} newTx.begin();
}
List messages =
Here "Message" class is mapped to newEm.createQuery("select m from
"MESSAGES" table, "id", "text" and Message m order by m.text
"nextMessage" properties - to asc").getResultList();
"MESSAGE_ID", "MESSAGE_TEXT" and
"NEXT_MESSAGE_ID" fields. System.out.println( messages.size() + "
message(s) found:" );
2. Now create a simple program (
HelloWorld.java ) that uses persistent for (Object m : messages) {
"Message" object: Message loadedMsg = (Message) m;
System.out.println(loadedMsg.getText());
}

newTx.commit(); 

newEm.close(); <property name="hibernate.show_sql"
// Shutting down the application value="true"/>
emf.close(); <property name="hibernate.format_sql"
} value="true"/>
} <property name="use_sql_comments"
value="true"/>
This example does not refer to any <property name="hibernate.dialect"

Creational Design Patterns
Singleton Pattern: package singleton;
import org.apache.log4j.Priority;
import java.util.GregorianCalendar;
The singleton design pattern deals with import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
one and only one instance of an object that import java.io.FileOutputStream;
encapsulates the control of the object from import java.util.Properties;
a common place. There are various ways import java.io.PrintStream;
of achieving this pattern. import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
For example, create an exception that is
thrown by a class if the class is instantiated
more than once. Next declare a boolean public class Logger {
variable and make it static so that it can private String fileName;
be shared among all the instances of a private Properties properties;
class. Initialize this static variable inside private Priority priority;
the constructor of this class. The
constructor would throw an exception if it private Logger() {
is initialized second time. It is the best logger = this;
technique of using the singleton pattern. }
But take care to set the variable whenever
destroying during the finalize method call. public int getRegisteredLevel() {
int i = 0;
Another approach of creating Singleton try {
method includes a static method and InputStream inputstream =
private constructor in a class. Declaring the getClass().getResourceAsStream
constructor as private ensures that the ("Logger.properties");
instance variable can be created only from properties.load(inputstream);
inside the method of the class. The static inputstream.close();
method sets the variable as boolean that i = Integer.parseInt(properties.getProperty
indicates the creation of the instance and ("logger.registeredlevel"));
returns an instance. if(i < 0 || i > 3)
i = 0;
Benefits: Singleton pattern controls }
access to unique instances, reduce name catch(Exception exception) {
space, permits a variable number of System.out.println("Logger: Failed in the
instances, allows refinement of operations getRegisteredLevel method");
and representations, and provides more exception.printStackTrace();
flexibility than class operations. }
return i;
Usage: These are used in those places }
where there is only one instance of a class.
The Singleton pattern is mostly used in private String
multi-threaded applications. Singleton getFileName(GregorianCalendar gc) {
patterns are often used as global variables SimpleDateFormat dateFormat1 = new
because the global variables permit SimpleDateFormat("dd-MMM-yyyy");
allocation and initialization whenever String dateString =
required. They don't permit to pollute the dateFormat1.format(gc.getTime());
global namespace with unnecessary String fileName =
variables. "C:\\prashant\\patterns\\log\\PatternsExceptionLog-
" + dateString + ".txt";

return fileName; Example:

}
final class Logger {
public void logMsg(Priority p, String //implementation of a static class of a
message) { Singleton pattern
try { static public void logMessage(String s) {
GregorianCalendar gc = new System.out.println(s);
GregorianCalendar(); }
String fileName = getFileName(gc); }
FileOutputStream fos = new
FileOutputStream(fileName, true); public class StaticLogger {
PrintStream ps = new PrintStream(fos); public static void main(String args[]) {
SimpleDateFormat dateFormat2 = new Logger.logMessage("This is SINGLETON");
SimpleDateFormat("EEE, MMM d, yyyy 'at' }
hh:mm:ss a"); }
ps.println("<"+dateFormat2.format
(gc.getTime())+">["+message+"]"); The advantage of this static approach is
ps.close(); that its easier to use. The disadvantage of
} course is that if in future you do not want
catch (IOException ie) { the class to be static anymore, you will
ie.printStackTrace(); have to do a lot of recoding.
}
} Builder Pattern:
public static void initialize() { This design pattern allows the client to
logger = new Logger(); construct a complex object based on its
} type and content. One can achieve the way
// singleton - pattern of constructing the objects by using the
private static Logger logger; factory pattern. This is similar to the
public static Logger getLogger() { abstract factory pattern as both returns a
return logger; group of related objects. The only
} difference between these two patterns is
} that Builder pattern makes a complex
object step by step on the basis of data
passed to it.
Difference between static class and static
method approaches: One question that Benefits: These types of patterns provide
comes to most of the people's mind is that greater control over construction process,
" Whats the difference between a static separation between the construction and
class and a singleton class?" The answer is representation, and support to change the
static class is one of the approaches that internal representation of objects.
makes a class Singleton.
Usage: Builder is useful in those conditions
We can create and declare a class as final where you need to assemble several
simply by declaring all its methods as different kinds of complex objects at run-
static. In this case, you can call the static time. Once it is created it isolates the
methods directly but cant create any building process of object, from the object
instance of class. itself. Different objects may be constructed
by using similar methods but once the

classes will implement the price() method
First lets create an interface named Item and return a price for each type of pizza.
which contains the two public methods one In this example we are implementing the

defining the price of each item.
Italianpizza.java
We are putting all the classes in the
package builder. package builder;
package builder; public class Italianpizza extends Pizza {
public interface Item { public int price() {

return 200;
public Packing pack(); }
}
public int price();
Now lets consider the item Ice Cream
}
IceCream.java
package builder;
Now, we define the classes for each of the
item, as pizza, ice cream and cold drink. public class IceCream implements Item {
All these classes will implement the Item
interface. public Packing pack() {
return new Envelop();
Lets start with Pizza. Here we are making }
the pizza.java class as abstract because
we will implement price method according public int price() {
the type of the pizza. A pizza is wrapped return 20;
in the paper and is served. The class }
Wrapper is sub-class of Packing interface. }
Lets consider this class as Pizza.java

Now, lets see the Builder class,
package builder; MealBuilder. This is the class which serves
the meal.
public abstract class Pizza implements
Item { MealBuilder.java
package builder;
public Packing pack() {
return new Wrapper(); public class MealBuilder {
} public Packing additems() {
public abstract int price(); Item[] items = {new Italianpizza(), new
} IceCream(), new Coke()}
return new MealBox().addItems(items);

}

public int CalculatePrice() { Usage: These are used when you are not

return totalPrice; the classes are instantiated at run-time.
}
} Example: Let's create an interface and
implement it in the various classes.
This class calculates the total meal and its Shape.java

improves modularity and makes the class Square implements Shape {

The conclusion is that in Builder Pattern, Circle.java

the client instructs the builder class what it class Circle implements Shape {
