Statements in a program are generally executed in a sequential manner, which is called sequential execution or sequential control flow. However, by putting the decision-making statement in the program, the normal flow of the program can be controlled. Statements that control the flow of the program are called control statements.

This tutorial shows how to change the default close action to exit the application when the window is closed. In additon, this discusses the different close actions.

This tutorial is geared toward java, but it applys to many programming languages.Arrays let you hold multiple objects. Say you want to hold a bunch of numbers, instead of having a bunch of scattered int objects, you can use an array and hold it all in an organized fashion.Arrays only let you hold one specific type of object, so you can't hold integers and Strings in one array. Also, arrays let you only hold a set limit of objects, so if you make the array have ten spots, you can only hold a max of ten objects and can never make more space. Of course you don't have to necessarily hold a object in an array spot.

Before we begin our exploration of the internals of Spring MVC, it is important to discuss how a typical Spring MVC is built. In this chapter, we will answer such questions as, “Where should the business logic live?” and “What are the correct levels of abstractions?” We will present the entire picture of a Spring MVC web application to better explain the individual roles that Spring MVC plays and where it fits in the overall architecture.
