Hi Group,

Is it necessary to know Swing in order to clear SCEA?


Thanks for your time,
Sai

I hope not (and I don't think so).

I am working on SCEA part 2 and planning to use both a Web front-end and a Rich Interface application. For the latter I plan to use Swing within an applet, which I've never done before myself

I think the point of the SCEA certification is that a certified architect is confident with the J2EE technology and when/how to use them, system level requirements, architectural constraints, etc... and can come up with an efficient/effective architecture.... NOT to build himself the system.

Ciao

That's right. As already stated in other posts: You're supposed to know, that Swing exists and what it's for, but you do not need to know how to fiddle with Swing components themselves - that's the scope of a developer.

Hi Ramakrishna,

I'm afraid, I can't give you any advices, that have not been already given in the forum. I didn't use too many books for preparation, as I gained most of my knowledge by practical work.

My favourite books:

- "Core J2EE Patterns" by Deepak Alur et. al.
- "J2EE Design and Development" by Rod Johnson
- "Head First Design Patterns" from O'Reilly

And I found Whizlabs' mock exams quite helpful as a self-test.

Greetings,
Frank
