Description

This revised edition of the classic Core Java (TM), Volume I-Fundamentals, is the definitive guide to Java for serious programmers who want to put Java to work on real projects. Fully updated for the new Java SE 6 platform, this no-nonsense tutorial and reliable reference illuminates the most important language and library features with thoroughly tested real-world examples. The example programs have been carefully crafted to be easy to understand as well as useful in practice, so you can rely on them as an outstanding starting point for your own code. Volume I is designed to quickly bring you up to speed on what's new in Java SE 6 and to help you make the transition as efficiently as possible, whether you're upgrading from an earlier version of Java or migrating from another language. The authors concentrate on the fundamental concepts of the Java language, along with the basics of user-interface programming. You'll find detailed, insightful coverage of Java fundamentals Object-oriented programming Interfaces and inner classes Reflection and proxies The event listener model GUI programming with Swing Packaging applications Exception handling Logging and debugging Generic programming The collections framework Concurrency For detailed coverage of XML processing, networking, databases, internationalization, security, advanced AWT/Swing, and other advanced features, look for the forthcoming eighth edition of Core Java (TM), Volume II-Advanced Features (ISBN: 978-0-13-235479-0).

Description

The revised edition of the classic Core Java (TM), Volume II-Advanced Features, covers advanced user-interface programming and the enterprise features of the Java SE 6 platform. Like Volume I (which covers the core language and library features), this volume has been updated for Java SE 6 and new coverage is highlighted throughout. All sample programs have been carefully crafted to illustrate the latest programming techniques, displaying best-practices solutions to the types of real-world problems professional developers encounter. Volume II includes new sections on the StAX API, JDBC 4, compiler API, scripting framework, splash screen and tray APIs, and many other Java SE 6 enhancements. In this book, the authors focus on the more advanced features of the Java language, including complete coverage of Streams and Files Networking Database programming XML JNDI and LDAP Internationalization Advanced GUI components Java 2D and advanced AWT JavaBeans Security RMI and Web services Collections Annotations Native methods For thorough coverage of Java fundamentals-including interfaces and inner classes, GUI programming with Swing, exception handling, generics, collections, and concurrency-look for the eighth edition of Core Java (TM), Volume I-Fundamentals (ISBN: 978-0-13-235476-9).
