Using Java and XML, you can now create "wizard-like" program generators that automate much of the work of software development -- and deliver productivity improvements of up to 100x. In this book, former Bell Laboratories Distinguished Staff Member J. Craig Cleaveland demonstrates how to do it -- often, with little or no additional coding. Using extensive practical examples, Program Generators with Java and XML walks you through every technique, and every step. Cleaveland identifies off-the-shelf tools you can use to quickly building program generators; then introduces Domain Analysis techniques for determining the terminology, boundaries, commonalities, and variabilities of software families. Next, you'll master Domain Implementation: processes and tools for efficiently generating customized software. Cleaveland accounts for run-time and compile-time variabilities; then shows how to use XML documents as input, and use the DOM and SAX APIs to read and analyze them. You'll learn how to use JavaServer Pages and Xpath/XSLT to generate customized software; and how to create reusable architectures.
Use this book to extend the advantages of code generation throughout your custom applications -- and get to market faster, with better reliability and lower costs. Part of the Prentice Hall Charles F. Goldfarb XML Series.
J. CRAIG CLEAVELAND is a technology consultant specializing in Internet applications and domain engineering. As CTO for Internet Games Corporation, he designed and developed a complete Java-based multi-player game network. Previously, he spent a year at Digital Equipment Corporation researching advanced Java technologies. Cleaveland spent 13 years at AT&T Bell Laboratories developing, promoting, and teaching program generator technologies. There, he was honored with the Distinguished Technical Staff Award in 1987.
