Developing Java EE Applications
You can develop Java™ applications with the Java EE programming model by using WebSphere Developer Tools.
These topics provide instructions for creating, configuring, defining, and securing Java applications, and validating code within applications.
Learn about Java EE Applications
The Java EE programming model simplifies the process of creating Java applications. You can deploy your Java EE application by using WebSphere® Application Server V8.5 or later.
Java EE: Overview
Using the Java Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE) architecture, you can build distributed web and enterprise applications. This architecture helps you focus on presentation and application issues, rather than on systems issues.
Selecting working sets
You can select projects or components to group in working sets in the workspace.
Setting Java EE preferences
Before you begin developing Java EE applications, you can optimize the workbench for Java enterprise development by setting various preferences.
Creating and configuring Java EE projects using wizards
You can use wizards to create Java EE projects in your workspace.
Creating and configuring Java EE modules using annotations
Annotations are a modifier or metadata tag that provide additional data to Java classes, interfaces, constructors, methods, fields, parameters, and local variables. With Java EE, you can use annotations to create and configure modules.
Defining Java EE applications
You can use the tools in the workspace to define the module dependencies in the Java EE project in your workspace.
Enterprise application security
You can provide security for your Java EE enterprise application using annotations or using deployment descriptors.
Setting permissions in the Java EE Application Permission Editor
After you create your permissions.xml file, you can edit this file with the Java EE Application Permission Editor to set rights and permissions for your Java EE applications.
Validating code in enterprise applications
The workbench includes validators that check certain files in your enterprise application module projects for errors.
