IOC is now a popular topic. I decided to find a good IOC container to study hard. Spring is of course preferred. After a period of time, I feel that Spring is primarily a more flexible component, not often a J2EE framework. Building J2EE, such as hierarchical still requires developers to architectures, of course, Spring provides a lot of conveniences, such as MVC mode, ORM integration.
Recently plan:
Example of learning Spring PetClinic. Try yourself step by step to build and modify it.
Learn an open source example g-roller.
Here are some Spring resources:
