1> Add jstl.jar (version 1.1 i guess) to your WEB-INF/lib folder
2> Modify index.jsp as shown below
Listing 1 - index.jsp 3> Add a controller for the landing or index page.
Listing 2 - EntryController.java 4> Add a controller for the upload page view
Listing 3 - UploadController.java 5> Time to launch the browser and test it on the browser.

6> Click on upload photo, you will see it is accessible to any one. But only logged on users should be able to access that page.

Figure 2 - secure page

In the next post I will start with the first step to ensure that a user is logged in / signed in before he or she can access the upload photo page.

Part 3 - Integrating Tiles, Thymeleaf and Spring MVC 3

In this post I will demonstrate how to integrate Apache Tiles with Thymeleaf. This is very simple. The first step is to include the tiles and thymeleaf-tiles extension dependencies. I will include them in the pom.xml. Note we wil lbe using Tiles 2.2.2 Listing 1 - parent/pom.xml --- thymeleaf-tiles and tiles dependencies <!-- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ --> <!-- Tiles --> <!-- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ --> <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.tiles</groupId> <artifactId>tiles-core</artifactId> <version>${tiles.version}</version> <scope>compile</scope> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.tiles</groupId> <artifactId>tiles-template</artifactId> <version>${tiles.version}</version> <scope>compile</s...

How to implement Cache Aside Pattern with Spring?

Problem You want to boost application performance by loading data from a cache and prevent the network trip to the persistent store (and also the query execution). This can be achieved by loading data from a cache. However, you want to load data on demand or lazily. Also, you want the application to control the cache data management – loading, eviction, and retrieval. Forces Improve performance by loading data from cache lazily. Application code controls cache data management. The underlying caching system does not provide read-through, write-through/write-behind strategies (strange really ??). Solution Use cache aside design pattern to solve the problems outlined above. This is also one of many caching patterns/strategies. I believe it is named in this because aside from managing the data store, application code is responsible for managing the cache also. Let's now try to understand how this caching technique works and then explore how it solves the proble...
