Abstract:

I*Tea is a Web application server entirely written in Java, scalable, and small in size. It supports the Tea scripting language, allowing fast prototyping and development of web applications which can evolve up to large, scalable and robust applications. It supplies a few pre-built client context and session management policies giving the application programmer the choice to choose between client-server programming models, or explicit client context management. I*Tea can generate any kind of output the programmer desires (HTML, WML, XML, etc...) and comes with object-oriented libraries for HTML rendering and form processing. Applications typically range from small scripts embedded within HTML pages to large business management applications on Enterprise JavaBeans1 technology.
