Conventions

In this book, you will find a number of styles of text that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles, and an explanation of their meaning.

Code words in text are shown as follows: "Assume that we want to delete the Sales department from the data storage."

A block of code is set as follows:

{"departmentId":10,
"departmentName":"IT",
"manager":"John Chen,
"links": [ {
    "rel": "employees",
    "href": "http://packtpub.com/resources/departments/IT/
    employees"
} ]"}

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

@Path("departments")
@Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
public class DepartmentResource{
//Class implementation goes here...
}

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

mvn install –DskipTests

New terms and important words are shown in bold. Words that you see on the screen, in menus or dialog boxes for example, appear in the text like this: "Select Local Domain and click on Next to continue the wizard."
