Yes Buying the book will be good investment..

I think its best to do SCBCD and then go for SCEA.

Yes You can use HF 1st ed but you might feel more confident if use 2nd ed. I had 1st ed but bought 2nd ed also and the end result was good.This is my thinking.Good luck with the exam.

because Its used for mapping a Specific servlets (developed buy a developer that is not from your company which has given different role name or same role names with different meaning ) role to your web app's roles.

Congratulations ! I did SCWCD 27th and I am also hoping to do SCBCD. As I heard there is no Head First for SCBCD 5 yet and best to buy EJB 3 in Action which I did yesterday. It is like HF but it is not aimed for SCBCD so no questions. Study hard.Good Luck.

Is there any deeper reason?

We use a <security-role-ref> where roles of a servlet may appear the same as web app's (Admin is in both) but they may be having different meaning.

eg. servlet - admin - administrative role
web-app - admin - lesser access role
- administrator - administrative role --> this must be mapped to admin in <security-role-ref> so the web app understands what servlet means.


this way you dont have to recode that other developer created servlet every time you use it in your web app

Thanks a lot Guys
