The scope of this book is using J2EE 1.3 on the JBoss 3.2.x series. At the time of writing, the latest release is version 3.2.3. You should use this version or later with the examples.
We will cover downloading and installation and see how to start JBoss. Then we’ll have a quick tour of the server directory structure and layout, the key configuration files and services.
Moving on to the examples, we’ll look at how to deploy the “Duke’s Bank” application from the Sun J2EE Tutorial. This will let you see JBoss in action as quickly as possible and also gives you a chance to get some practical experience of simple configuration and deployment issues. Further chapters cover other J2EE topics which aren’t used in Duke’s Bank – JMS Messaging (and Message-Driven Beans) and container-managed persistence (CMP). These also make use of the J2EE tutorial examples.
