 ADVANCED JAVA PRACTICAL BOOK

DEPARTMENT OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY PREFACE

It gives us immense pleasure to present the first edition of Advanced Java Practical Book
for the B.E. 3rd year students of Silver Oak Group of Institutes.

The theory and laboratory course of Advanced Java, at Silver Oak Group of Institutes,
Ahmedabad, is designed in such a manner that students can develop the basic
understanding of the subject during theory classes and gain the hands-on practical
experience during their laboratory sessions. Java being one of the most prominent
languages opens the door to many application developments involving naïves of
Input/output, Networking, the standard utilities, Applets, Frameworks, GUI-based
controls and much more. Many of these concepts were detailed in our first part in Object
Oriented Programming using Java. In this second part of java, Advanced Java, we will
look into networking concepts using TCP/UDP, Java Database Connectivity, web
application development with Servlet, JSP and JSF, frameworks like Hibernate and
Spring.

The Laboratory Manual presented here takes you onto the learning journey of advanced
concepts of Java. In this you will be exploring the wide range of topics like creating a
network application with help of TCP/UDP connection, linking & communication a
database with java application using JDBC, creating a dynamic server side web
application using Servlet, Java Server Pages and Java Server Faces. We will also look into
the hibernate Object Relational Mapping (ORM) framework and application framework
Spring.

 PRACTICAL SET – 1
The java.net package of the J2SE APIs contains a collection of classes and interfaces that provide
the low-level communication details, allowing you to write programs that focus on solving the
problem at hand.
The java.net package provides support for the two common network protocols −
TCP − TCP stands for Transmission Control Protocol, which allows for reliable
communication between two applications. TCP is typically used over the Internet Protocol,
which is referred to as TCP/IP.

UDP − UDP stands for User Datagram Protocol, a connection-less protocol that allows for
packets of data to be transmitted between applications.

The two key classes from the java.net package used in creation of server and client programs are:
ServerSocket
Socket
A server program creates a specific type of socket that is used to listen for client requests (server
socket), In the case of a connection request, the program creates a new socket through which it
will exchange data with the client using input and output streams. The socket abstraction is very
like the file concept: developers must open a socket, perform I/O, and close it. Figure illustrates
key steps involved in creating socket-based server and client programs.

Socket-based client and server programming

 TCP/IP SOCKET PROGRAMMING

A simple Server Program in Java The steps for creating a simple server program are:

1. Open the Server Socket:

ServerSocket server = new ServerSocket (PORT );
2. Wait for the Client Request:
Socket client = server.accept();
3. Create I/O streams for communicating to the client
DataInputStream is = new DataInputStream(client.getInputStream());
DataOutputStream os = new DataOutputStream(client.getOutputStream());
4. Perform communication with client
Receive from client: String line = is.readLine();
Send to client: os.writeBytes(“Hello\n”);
5. Close socket:
client.close();

A simple Client Program in Java The steps for creating a simple client program are:

1. Create a Socket Object:

Socket client = new Socket (server, port_id);
2. Create I/O streams for communicating with the server.
is = new DataInputStream(client.getInputStream());
os = new DataOutputStream(client.getOutputStream());
3. Perform I/O or communication with the server:
Receive data from the server: String line = is.readLine();
Send data to the server: os.writeBytes(“Hello\n”);
4. Close the socket when done:
client.close();

Datagrams

TCP guarantees the delivery of packets and preserves their order on destination. Sometimes these
features are not required and since they do not come without performance costs, it would be better
to use a lighter transport protocol. This kind of service is accomplished by the UDP protocol which
conveys datagram packets.
Datagram packets are used to implement a connectionless packet delivery service supported by the
UDP protocol. Each message is transferred from source machine to destination based on
information contained within that packet. That means, each packet needs to have destination
address and each packet might be routed differently, and might arrive in any order. Packet delivery
is not guaranteed.
The format of datagram packet is:
| Msg | length | Host | serverPort |
Java supports datagram communication through the following classes:
 DatagramPacket
 DatagramSocket

The class DatagramPacket contains several constructors that can be used for creating packet
object.
One of them is:
DatagramPacket(byte[] buf, int length, InetAddress address, int port);
This constructor is used for creating a datagram packet for sending packets of length length to the
specified port number on the specified host. The message to be transmitted is indicated in the first
argument.
The key methods of DatagramPacket class are:
byte[] getData() : Returns the data buffer.
int getLength() : Returns the length of the data to be sent or the length of the data received.
void setData(byte[] buf) : Sets the data buffer for this packet.
void setLength(int length) : Sets the length for this packet.

The class DatagramSocket supports various methods that can be used for transmitting or
receiving data a datagram over the network.

16
 The two key methods are:
void send(DatagramPacket p) : Sends a datagram packet from this socket.
void receive(DatagramPacket p) : Receives a datagram packet from this socket.
A simple UDP server program that waits for client‟s requests and then accepts the message
(datagram) and sends back the same message is given below. Of course, an extended server
program can manipulate client‟s messages/request and send a new message as a response.

DatagramSocket's are Java's mechanism for network communication via UDP instead of TCP.
UDP is still layered ontop of IP. You can use Java's DatagramSocket both for sending and
receiving UPD datagrams.

 PRACTICAL SET – 4
JDBC stands for Java Database Connectivity, which is a standard Java API for database-
independent connectivity between the Java programming language and a wide range of databases.

The JDBC library includes APIs for each of the tasks mentioned below that are commonly
associated with database usage.

 Making a connection to a database.

 Creating SQL or MySQL statements.
 Executing SQL or MySQL queries in the database.
 Viewing & Modifying the resulting records.
Fundamentally, JDBC is a specification that provides a complete set of interfaces that allows for
portable access to an underlying database. Java can be used to write different types of executables,
such as −

 Java Applications
 Java Applets
 Java Servlets
 Java ServerPages (JSPs)
 Enterprise JavaBeans (EJBs).
These different executables can use a JDBC driver to access a database, and take advantage of
the stored data.

The Statement Interface

The Statement interface provides methods to execute queries with the database. The statement
interface is a factory of ResultSet i.e. it provides factory method to get the object of ResultSet.
Commonly used methods of Statement interface:

1) public ResultSet execute Query(String sql): is used to execute SELECT query. It returns the
object of ResultSet.

2) public int executeUpdate(String sql): is used to execute specified query, it may be create,

23
 drop, insert, update, delete etc.

3) public boolean execute(String sql): is used to execute queries that may return multiple
results.

4) public int[] executeBatch(): is used to execute batch of commands.

PreparedStatement
The PreparedStatement interface is a sub interface of Statement. It is used to execute
parameterized query.
Let's see the example of parameterized query:
1. String sql="insert into emp values(?,?,?)";

As you can see, we are passing parameter (?) for the values. Its value will be set by calling the
setter methods of PreparedStatement.

Why use PreparedStatement?

Improves performance:
The performance of the application will be faster if you use PreparedStatement interface because
query is compiled only once.

How to get the instance of PreparedStatement?

The prepareStatement() method of Connection interface is used to return the object of
PreparedStatement.
Syntax:
public PreparedStatement prepareStatement(String query) throws SQLException{}

Method Description

public void setInt(int paramIndex, int value) sets the integer value to the given
parameter index.

public void setString(int paramIndex, String sets the String value to the given parameter

24
 value) index.

public void setFloat(int paramIndex, float sets the float value to the given parameter
value) index.

public void setDouble(int paramIndex, double sets the double value to the given
value) parameter index.

public int executeUpdate() executes the query. It is used for create,

drop, insert, update, delete etc.

public ResultSet executeQuery() executes the select query. It returns an

instance of ResultSet.

CallableStatement
CallableStatement interface is used to call the stored procedures and functions.

We can have business logic on the database using stored procedures and functions that will make
the performance better because these are precompiled.
Suppose you need the get the age of the employee based on the date of birth, you may create a
function that receives date as the input and returns age of the employee as the output.

What is the difference between stored procedures and functions?

The differences between stored procedures and functions are given below:

Stored Procedure Function

is used to perform business logic. is used to perform calculation.

must not have the return type. must have the return type.

may return 0 or more values. may return only one values.

25
 We can call functions from the procedure. Procedure cannot be called from function.

Procedure supports input and output Function supports only input parameter.
parameters.

Exception handling using try/catch block can Exception handling using try/catch can't be used
be used in stored procedures. in user defined functions.

The prepareCall() method of Connection interface returns the instance of CallableStatement.

Syntax is given below:
1. public CallableStatement prepareCall("{ call procedurename(?,?...?)}");

The example to get the instance of CallableStatement is given below:

1. CallableStatement stmt=con.prepareCall("{call myprocedure(?,?)}");

It calls the procedure my procedure that receives 2 arguments.

Servlets: Servlets are small programs that execute on the server side of a web connection, it
dynamically extends the functionality of a web server. It is used to create a web application that
reside on the server side and generate a dynamic web page.

The javax.servlet and javax.servlet.http packages provide interfaces and classes for writing our
own servlets. The javax.servlet package contains many interfaces and classes that are used by the
servlet or web container. These are not specific to any protocol. The
javax.servlet.http package contains interfaces and classes that are responsible for http requests
only. All servlets must implement the javax.servlet.Servlet interface, which defines servlet
lifecycle methods. When implementing a generic service, we can extend the GenericServlet class
provided with the Java Servlet API. The HttpServlet class provides methods, such as doGet() and
doPost(), for handling HTTP-specific services.

The servlet life-cycle includes three major functions of a Servlet interface :

1. Initializing a Servlet ( Servlet.init(ServletConfig) ) : init() method is used to initialize a
servlet object. ServletConfig object allows to access name-value configured initialization
parameters & container details.
2. Handling a request ( Servlet.service(ServletRequest, ServletResponse) ) : This stage is
heart of servlet lifecycle, actual request processing is carried out here. ServletRequest
object allows to access client‟s request. ServletResponse object assist servlet to send
response to client. The actual program is handled in this section.
3. Destroying a Servlet ( Servlet.destroy() ) : It is used to release to all servlet instances and
resources. It allows all thread to complete their work and release itself.

The major interfaces of Servlet are:

ServletRequest Interface: It is used to encapsulate client request. It provide important
information about client to Servlet.
ServletResponse Interface: It is used to encapsulate client‟s response. It always listens to a
Servlet object.
ServletConfig Interface: It allows a servlet container to pass information to a servlet. It is used to
initialize a parameter.
ServletContext Interface: ServletContext defines a set of method that a servlet use to
communicate with Servlet Container. It allows parameter to be accessed by all servlets in an
application.

Web.xml : The most important file of a Servlet application is web.xml file. The web.xml file is the
standard deployment descriptor for the Web application that the Web service is a part of. It declares
the filters and servlets used by the service. The general format of the web.xml is as given below.
It includes the servlet which are part of your application and its mapping to the appropriate url-
pattern, through which it can be accessed. All the Servlet used in application are mentioned in the
web.xml file.
<web-app …>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>Demo1</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>Demo1</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Demo1</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>Demo1</servlet-class>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>

Apart from the Servlets, filters, listeners, configuration/initialization parameters, error pages,
welcome files, security and session management concepts can be included in web.xml file. The
initialization parameters can be included either for a specific servlet or for all the servlet in a
application, with help of init-param and context-param tags respectively. They can be accessed
with help of methods of ServletConfig and ServletContext interface, alongwith
getinitparameter(name) method. To add a initialization parameter to a particular servlet, it can
written as below, within the servlet tag:

<servlet> ….

<init-param>
<param-name> semester </param-name>
<param-value> 6 </param-value>
</init-param>
</servlet>

 PRACTICAL SET – 7

RequestDispatcher : Defines an object that receives requests from the client and sends them to
any resource (such as a servlet, HTML file, or JSP file) on the server. The servlet container creates
the RequestDispatcher object, which is used as a wrapper around a server resource located at a
particular path or given by a particular name. This interface is intended to wrap servlets, but a
servlet container can create RequestDispatcher objects to wrap any type of resource. The
RequestDispatcher interface provides two important methods. They are:

1. public void forward(ServletRequest request, ServletResponse response) throws

ServletException, java.io.IOException: Forwards a request from a servlet to another
resource (servlet, JSP file, or HTML file) on the server.

2. public void include(ServletRequest request, ServletResponse response) throws

ServletException,java.io.IOException: Includes the content of a resource (servlet, JSP
page, or HTML file) in the response.

Action Tags: JSP provides various action tags or elements. Each JSP action tag is used to perform
some specific tasks. The action tags are used to control the flow between pages and to use Java
Bean. A Java Bean is a java class that should follow following conventions: It should have a no-
arg constructor. It should be Serializable. It should provide methods to set and get the values of
the properties, known as getter and setter methods. A bean encapsulates many objects into one
object, so we can access this object from multiple places. Here, are mentioned action tags used
with Bean Class:
The <jsp:useBean> action tag is used to locate or instantiate a bean class. If bean object of the
Bean class is already created, it doesn't create the bean depending on the scope. But if object of
bean is not created, it instantiates the bean.
<jsp:useBean id = "students" class = "Bean.StudentBean">

The setProperty and getProperty action tags are used for developing web application with Java
Bean. In web devlopment, bean class is mostly used because it is a reusable software component
that represents data.
The jsp:setProperty action tag sets a property value or values in a bean using the setter method.
<jsp:setProperty name="bean" property="username" value="abc" />

The jsp:getProperty action tag returns the value of the property.

<jsp:getProperty name="obj" property="name" />

JSP implicit objects are created by servlet container while translating JSP page to Servlet source
to help developers. We can use implicit objects in JSP directly in scriptlets that goes in service -
method. However we can‟t use
Object Class Scope
jsp implicit objects in JSP
declaration because that code Out javax.servlet.jsp.JspWriter Page
will go at class level.
Request javax.servlet.ServletRequest Request
We have 9 jsp implicit objects
Response javax.servlet.ServletResponse Page
that we can directly use in JSP
page. Seven of them are declared Session javax.servlet.http.HttpSession Session

as local variable at the start of Application javax.servlet.ServletContext Application

_jspService() method whereas
exception java.lang.Throwable Page
two of them are part of
_jspService() method argument Config javax.servlet.ServletConfig Page
that we can use. Page java.lang.Object Page

PageContext javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext Page

Request Object : It is also an implicit object of class HttpServletRequest class and using this
object request parameters can be accessed.

Syntax:
request.getParameters(“Name”); ( where “Name” is the form element)
Session Object : Session object is of class HttpSession and used to maintain the session
information. It stores the information in Name-Value pair.
Syntax:
session.setAttribute(“Name”,”Id”); | session.getAttribute("Name");

In a web application, server may be responding to several clients at a time so session tracking is a
way by which a server can identify the client. As we know HTTP protocol is stateless which means
client needs to open a separate connection every time it interacts with server and server treats each
request as a new request.
Now to identify the client, server needs to maintain the state and to do so , there are several session
tracking techniques.
a) Cookies
b) Hidden Fields
c) URL Rewriting
d) Session Object
Cookie
Cookie is a key value pair of information, sent by the server to the browser and then browser
sends back this identifier to the server with every request there on.
There are two types of cookies:
Session cookies - are temporary cookies and are deleted as soon as user closes the browser. The
next time user visits the same website, server will treat it as a new client as cookies are already
deleted.
Persistent cookies - remains on hard drive until we delete them or they expire.
URL Rewriting
URL Rewriting is the approach in which a session (unique) identifier gets appended with each
request URL so server can identify the user session.

For example if we apply URL rewriting on http://localhost:8080/jsp-tutorial/home.jsp , it will

become something like ?jSessionId=XYZ where jSessionId=XYZ is the attached session identifier
and value XYZ will be used by server to identify the user session.

It was started in 2001 by Gavin King as an alternative to EJB2 style entity bean. Hibernate is a
pure Java object-relational mapping (ORM) and persistence framework that allows you to map
plain old Java objects to relational database tables. The main goal of hibernate is to relieve the
developer from the common data persistence related tasks. It maps the objects in the java with the
tables in the database very efficiently and also you can get maximum using its data query and
retrieval facilities. Mainly by using Hibernate in your projects you can save incredible time and
effort. Hibernate framework simplifies the development of java application to interact with the
database. Hibernate is an open source, lightweight, ORM (Object Relational Mapping) tool.
Advantages of Hibernate
Opensource and Lightweight: Hibernate framework is
opensource under the LGPL license and lightweight.
Fast performance: The performance of hibernate
framework is fast because cache is internally used in
hibernate framework. There are two types of cache in
hibernate framework first level cache and second level
cache. First level cache is enabled by default.
Database Independent query: HQL (Hibernate Query
Language) is the object-oriented version of SQL. It
generates the database independent queries. So you don't
need to write database specific queries.
Automatic table creation: Hibernate framework provides
the facility to create the tables of the database
automatically. So there is no need to create tables in the
database manually. Directory Structure
Simplifies complex join: To fetch data from multiple tables is easy in hibernate framework.

It was developed by Rod Johnson in 2003. Spring framework makes the easy development of
JavaEE application. It is helpful for beginners and experienced persons. Spring is a
lightweight framework. It can be thought of as a framework of frameworks because it provides
support to various frameworks such as Struts, Hibernate, EJB, JSF etc. The framework, in broader
sense, can be defined as a structure where we find solution of the various technical problems.
Spring is lightweight when it comes to size and transparency. Spring framework targets to make
J2EE development easier to use and promote good programming practice by enabling a POJO-
based programming model.

Advantages of Spring

 Predefined Templates, Loose Coupling, Easy to test,

Lightweight, Fast Development, Powerful
abstraction, Declarative support.
