  4. J2EE • Java 2 Platform Enterprise Edition “is a platform-independent, Java-centric environment from Sun for developing, building and deploying Web-based enterprise applications online. The J2EE platform consists of a set of services, APIs, and protocols that provide the functionality for developing multitiered, Web-based applications.” (Webopedia) (http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/J/J2EE.html) • Java API, JSP, JavaBeans, Servlets, Applets, JDBC, and much, much more

  5. Tiles tabs search user area summary results facets Tiles are jsps or a layout made of multiple jsps

  6. Bringing Maps into Primo

  8. JSP Embedded Servlet <%@ page import="java.util.*" import="java.util.regex.*" import="java.io.*" import="java.net.*" import="javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest" %> <% String pnxId = request.getParameter("pnxId"); String pgurl = "http://www.library.nd.edu/eresources/test/primo_gateway/primo_location.cgi?pnxId=" + pnxId; String dat = ""; try{ URL url = new URL(pgurl); BufferedReader bin = new BufferedReader( new InputStreamReader (url.openStream() )); String line = ""; while( (line = bin.readLine()) != null) dat = dat + line + "\n"; }catch(Exception e){ dat = "there was a problem retrieving the desired page"; } %> <% out.print(dat); %>

  9. Pulling it all Together • JSP – custom tile, web service • CSS hides html returned from web service • jQuery and jQuery UI create notification box and place div inside for version 2 • AJAX for version 3

  13. DocDel (Deliver) Grabs pnxId for each, AJAX sends request for each item to determine eligibility Link delivered and placed as a tab for each eligible record
