A sample spring application

[mghildiy]

Hi everybody.

I am quite new to spring framework. I am looking for a sample application like shopping cart etc which I can use to learn basics of this new technology.

Can anyone please help me in this regard?

Spring != spring-richclient.
If you want to learn Spring, I can recommend the book "Spring in Action".
If you want to learn spring-richclient, I recommend learning spring first.

Hi.

Thanks Geoffrey.

I have that book. But actually I am new to J2EE itself and hence I am finding jargons and their explanations a bit tedious. Hence I am looking for a sample application so that I can rebuilt it and learn the structure and flow of a spring based application( infact a J2EE application). What I have accquird till now is that there are a number of services in J2EE architecture like JNDI,JDBC etc. But I really know nothing about their working and how to use them programmatically.

Please help.

Hi.

In addition to last reply, does one need to master J2EE to move forward in spring. I am asking it as I am more of a toddler in J2EE.

For webapps, take a look at appfuse with a spring + JPA/hibernate + JSF OR struts setup.
