This book, the first in the IBM Press Guided Tour series, describes how to get started with IBM's new WebFacing tool and how to make progress with WebFacing efforts. The systematic approach presented here takes readers through WebFacing a sample green screen application using IBM WebSphere Development Studio Client. It also demonstrates how to use the different features in the tool to enhance the application after the initial conversion. Even debugging strategies are discussed. To maximize the speed and completeness of your learning experience, the author takes a practical, hands-on approach to explaining WebFacing features and how to use them. This approach, gained from involvement in defining the capabilities of the WebFacing tool allows you to benefit from both the step-by-step nature of the book as well as the most comprehensive treatment offered on WebFacing training. The book's many exercises will teach you a variety of features in the WebFacing tool and the WebSphere Development Studio Client product. The relationship between these products will also be explained as well as the reason for each of the various exercises.

This book helps legacy programmers move to GUI and the Web,
By Paul H. Harkins (West Chester, PA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Understanding the IBM WebFacing Tool: A Guided Tour (IBM Illustrated Guide series) (Paperback)
I purchased and read "Understanding the IBM WebFacing Tool" by Claus Weiss before attending a WebFacing seminar by Mr. Weiss at our Philadelphia PA computer users group.
Mr. Weiss is very effective and impressive in both his presentation and in his book in leading legacy programmers, like me, into the world of GUI and the Web in easy and understandable steps. I learned much from from the book, particularly how RPG and COBOL legacy programs can be easily modernized, along with the legacy programmers who still prefer to write in those languages. A user group associate, Joe Mariani, borrowed my WebFacing book four months ago to guide him in actually implementing the WebFacing Tool at his company. Each month, Joe explains to me how he is still actively using the book and benefiting from the code and concepts illustrated in Claus's book. Paul H. Harkins
