WebFacing Internals
A tour of the new IBM WebFacing tool that uses WebSphere, Java Server Pages and Servlets to create a graphical browser based front-end to legacy applications.
Topics include the development and runtime architecture, DDS considerations, WebSphere requirements, a sample application and user experiences in creating and deploying a WebFacing application.
The internal structure of WebFacing applications is covered so you can see how to manipulate and extend your WebFaced applications beyond simple refacing of RPG applications.
