I'm writing a chapter on Struts for a book, Professional JSP 2.0, from Wrox (http://www.wrox.com/books/1861008325.htm). This chapter includes information on Hibernate. The reason I'm sending this post is to verify the following statement:
Hibernate: Hibernate is a powerful, ultra-high performance object/relational persistence and query service for Java. Basically, you create XML files to map JavaBeans or Plain Old Java Objects (POJOs) to database tables. Then using Hibernate's query language, similar to Object Query Language (OQL) you can perform Create, Retrieve, Update and Delete (CRUD) operations on your objects. Any suggestions to the improvement of this description are appreciated. Here are descriptions for the rest of the products I'm listing: Ant: Apache Ant is a Java-based build tool. Using Ant will make your compile/assemble/deploy process much easier. It is a very powerful tool that I've come to rely on and love. XDoclet: XDoclet is a code generation engine. It enables Attribute-Oriented Programming for Java. In short, this means that you can add more significance to your code by adding meta data (attributes) to your java sources. This is done in special JavaDoc tags. XDoclet will parse your source files and generate many artifacts such as XML descriptors and/or source code from it. These files are generated from templates that use the information provided in the source code and its JavaDoc tags. At the time of this writing, XDoclet can only be used as part of the build process utilizing Ant. Struts: A Model-View-Controller (MVC) Framework for building web applications. It's core is made up of Java Servlets, JavaBeans, ResourceBundles, XML and Tag Libraries. Tiles: A Composite View Framework for assembling presentation pages from component parts. Each part, or tile, can be reused as often as needed throughout your application. Tiles is available as a Plug-In for Struts and was recently integrated into Struts' core library (struts.jar). Validator: A Validator Framework that can be used for validation of any JavaBean. It can perform basic validations to check if a field is required, matches a regular expression, email, credit card, and server side type checking and date validation. It is available as a Plug-In for Struts and was recently integrated into Struts' core library (struts.jar).
