The document discusses the Model-View-Controller (MVC) design pattern. It provides background on MVC, describing it as a pattern that separates an application's data model, user interface, and logic/control components. The document then uses the Java Pet Store application as an example to illustrate how MVC is implemented with models as EJBs, views as JSPs, and controllers as servlets. It explains how MVC supports modularity and provides advantages like flexibility in changing views and models independently.

Mcv design patterns
- 1. MVC Design Pattern June 2015
- 2. Design Patterns • A pattern is a proven solution to a problem in a context. • Christopher Alexander says each pattern is a three-part rule which expresses a relation between a certain context, a problem, and a solution. • Design patterns represent a solutions to problems that arise when developing software within a particular context. i.e Patterns = problems.solution pairs in a context
- 3. Background • Started in 1987 by Ward Cunningham and Ken Beck who were working with Smalltalk and designing GUIs. • Popularized by Gamma, Helm, Johnson and Vlissides (The gang of four, Go4) • The three of Go4 were working on frameworks (E++,Unidraw, HotDraw) • Design pattern use a consistent documentation approach • Design pattern are granular and applied at different levels such as frameworks, subsystems and sub-subsystems • Design patterns are often organized as creational, structural or behavioral
- 4. Categorizing Pattern Patterns, then, represent expert solutions to recurring problems in a context and thus have been captured at many levels of abstraction and in numerous domains. Numerous categories are: • Design • Architectural • Analysis • Creational • Structural • Behavioral
- 5. Sun’s J2EE Framework • Components Containers and Connectors: Hiding Complexity, Enhancing Portability • Components are the key focus of application developers • Containers intercede between clients and components, providing services transparently to both, including transaction support and resource pooling. • Connectors sit beneath the J2EE platform, defining a portable service API to plug into existing enterprise vendor offerings.
- 6. J2EE • Components ▫ Enterprise Java Beans (EJB) ▫ Java Server Pages (JSP) ▫ Servlets • Containers (service providers) ▫ Web container ▫ Bean Container • Connectors (connection service providers)
- 8. J2EE and Design Patterns • J2EE: AN OPERATING SYSTEM FOR THE WEB Enterprise web applications, which live on networks and are accessible through browsers, are redefining Enterprise Web Software. This is the next wave of computing. • The J2EE architecture is built to enable component developers to use a Model View Controller (MVC) Design Pattern.
- 9. Details of MVC Design Pattern • Name (essence of the pattern) ▫ Model View Controller MVC • Context (where does this problem occur) ▫ MVC is an architectural pattern that is used when developing interactive application such as a shopping cart on the Internet. • Problem (definition of the reoccurring difficulty) ▫ User interfaces change often, especially on the internet where look-and-feel is a competitive issue. Also, the same information is presented in different ways. The core business logic and data is stable.
- 10. MVC continued • Solution (how do you solve the problem) ▫ Use the software engineering principle of “separation of concerns” to divide the application into three areas: Model encapsulates the core data and functionality View encapsulates the presentation of the data there can be many views of the common data Controller accepts input from the user and makes request from the model for the data to produce a new view.
- 11. MVC Structure for J2EE
- 12. MVC Architecture • The Model represents the structure of the data in the application, as well as application-specific operations on those data. • A View (of which there may be many) presents data in some form to a user, in the context of some application function. • A Controller translates user actions (mouse motions, keystrokes, words spoken, etc.) and user input into application function calls on the model, and selects the appropriate View based on user preferences and Model state.
- 13. Example of MVC Design Pattern • Let’s investigate this statement by looking at a small application that demonstrates MVC on J2EE
- 14. Java Pet Store- MVC Design Pattern The Java Pet Store is a reference application that demonstrates J2EE technologies. It demonstrates interaction between Java Server Pages (JSP's), custom Tag Libraries, JavaBeans, and Enterprise Java Beans. It demonstrates a real-world approach to application development, where the presentation of data is separated from the process of obtaining data from objects which interact with the enterprise or database tier. The Pet Store application implements MVC (Model-View- Controller) design, and demonstrates one way to design an application that should scale well.
- 15. Multi Tier Architecture The Java Pet Store design is divided into multiple tiers: A. Client tier B. Web tier C. Enterprise JavaBeans tier D. Enterprise Information System tier. These tiers are not necessarily arranged hierarchically. Each tier may communicate directly with other tiers, or indirectly by way of intermediate tiers.
- 17. A. Details of Client Tier • The Client tier is responsible for presenting data to the user, interacting with the user, and communicating with the other tiers of the application. • The Client tier is the only part the application the user ever sees. • The Client tier communicates with other tiers by way of well-defined interfaces. • A separate Client tier in the design provides flexibility and extensibility.
- 18. A. Details of Client Tier • In The Java Pet Store Client tier consists mainly of a browser displaying Web pages generated from server-side JSP pages in the Web tier. • Future new clients can be written using technologies or languages that do not yet even exist, since they must conform only to the interface for communicating with other tiers
- 19. B. Web Tier • The Web tier is responsible for performing all Web-related processing, such as serving HTML, instantiating Web page templates, and formatting JSP pages for display by browsers. • The Web tier in the Java Pet Store does all of these, and takes on the Controller functions for the Web application, caching model data interpreting user inputs, selecting appropriate Views based on application flow, and managing database connections.
- 20. C. EJB Tier • Enterprise JavaBeans are software business components which extend servers to perform application-specific functionality. • The interface between these components and their containers is defined in the EJBs specification. • Essentially, the EJBs tier provides a component model for access to distributed system services and persistent data.
- 21. C. EJB Tier • Both stand-alone clients and Web applications in the Web tier can use EJB components hosted by the EJBs tier. • It also simplifies application component development, because details about system issues such as persistence, reentrancy, transactions, remote access, and so on, are all handled by the container.
- 22. D.Enterprise Information System (EIS) Tier • The EIS tier is the enterprise information infrastructure. • Members of the EIS tier typically include enterprise information planning (ERP) systems, transaction processing monitors, relational database management systems, and legacy enterprise applications. • Access to the EIS tier is usually transactional, to ensure that data are consistent across application boundaries. • The EIS tier also enforces security and offers scalability.
- 23. MVC supports Modular Design Has set of modules, each tightly coupled internally, and loosely coupled between modules. Each module has an interface that defines the module's functional requirements and provides a place where third- party products may be integrated. The Java Pet Store demo modules are: User Account Product Catalog Order Processing Messaging Inventory Control The Modular design supports the design goal of reusable software.
- 24. Java Pet store- MVC • Views ▫ JSP pages, composed with templates and displayed in an HTML browser • Controller ▫ maps user input from the browser to request events, and forwards those events to the Shopping Client Controller in the EJB tier. • Model ▫ EJB Tier
- 25. MVC Details in Java Pet store • Model represents the structure of the data in the application, as well as application-specific operations on data - CartModel, InventoryModel, CustomerEJB, and others • Views are Java server pages (JSPs) ▫ rendered from the web container to the browser, stand-alone applications that provide View functionality, and interfaces to spreadsheet programs, such as the StarOfficeTM suite. • Controller is server side java program (Servlet) ▫ MainServlet.java, which dispatches browser requests to other controller objects, such as ShoppingClientController.java, AdminClientController.java, and their related support classes.
- 26. Views:Java Server Page (JSP) • http://java.sun.com/products/jsp/ • Technology for developing dynamic web sites that replaces CGI • Thought of as a server-side scripting tool • Contains HTML and Java code (scripts) • Is compiled into a servlet and executes on the server.
- 27. Controller Servlet • A java class that runs on the server • Extends http Servlet • Runs in a container class (servlet/JSP engine) • Application servers (Jrun, WebLogic) have the containers • This has the logic for the application
- 28. EJBs • Enterprise Java Beans Connect Servlets to the back end database • Examples of EJBs in Java Pet store are: AccountHandler, ModelUpdateManager, ShoppingClientControllerHome, CartHandler, ShoppingClientControllerEJB, SigninHandler, OrderHandler
- 29. Advantages of MVC • Separating Model from View (that is, separating data representation from presentation) - easy to add multiple data presentations for the same data, -facilitates adding new types of data presentation as technology develops. -Model and View components can vary independently enhancing maintainability, extensibility, and testability.
- 30. Advantages of MVC design Pattern • Separating Controller from View (application behavior from presentation) - permits run-time selection of appropriate Views based on workflow, user preferences, or Model state. • Separating Controller from Model (application behavior from data representation) - allows configurable mapping of user actions on the Controller to application functions on the Model.
- 31. Consequences or Benefits • We make changes without bringing down the server. • We leave the core code alone • We can have multiple versions of the same data displayed • We can test our changes in the actual environment. • We have achieved “separation of concerns”
