HowTo create J2EE™ Application using TogetherSoft Control Center

The TogetherSoft Control Center was introduced with the claim to revolt the processes of graphical development. Is it also capable to offer support for J2EE™ applications and handle them grafically as well?

The HowTo document introduces the reader to the elements of the TogetherSoft Control Center (TCC) in version 6.x/7.x. Based on an example it guides the reader through the steps of the development of a J2EE™ application. Aim of the document is to show step-by-step the creation of a J2EE™ compliant application with the TCC.

The focus in the document is the mapping of existing TCC syntax and elements and J2EE™ specific elements. Main focus of J2EE™ elements is on Enterprise Java Beans (EJBs) - especially session and entity beans. Aside from EJBs, HTML servlets and the mapping of the TCC's "EJB Assembler", "Web Application" and "Enterprise Application" diagrams in the J2EE™ deployment descriptors are explained.

The index lists the topics of the 13-pages document.
