From the Back Cover

Discover JavaBeans: the practical, secure way to build component software!
The JavaBeans API will be pivotal in helping companies transition from monolithic applications to secure collections of distributed, networked mini-applications. No Java API is more important—or more exciting.
With JavaBeans Developer's Resource, you'll learn all you need to know to design, develop and use Java Components—straight from a JavaBeans developer intimately familiar with both the Microsoft and Sun JavaBeans development environments.
Review the basic concepts underlying all component software, and then take a close look at the fundamentals of the JavaBeans API, including bean properties, events, introspection, and persistence. Then, discover how JavaBeans goes far beyond previous component models. Learn about the customization and introspection routines that make JavaBeans components both powerful and seamless.
Walk step by step through the construction and reuse of JavaBeans components, using extensive examples, code samples, and several complete Beans components on CD-ROM. Learn to use the GUI Builder to assemble disparate Beans into applications or applets. Compare powerful visual development tools like Penumbra Software's Mojo and Symantec's Visual Café—and learn how they can help you build JavaBeans without ever seeing source code.
JavaBeans Developer's Resource will help you understand and make the most of JavaBeans networking, including RMI and CORBA. You'll learn how to integrate JavaBeans with ActiveX components. Finally, there's detailed coverage of how JavaBeans are already being used in the “real world” to enable powerful, secure applications that simply weren't possible before.
If you work with Java, JavaBeans will dramatically extend your power. With JavaBeans, components have finally come of age—and JavaBeans Developer's Resource is your authoritative guide to making the most of them.
The accompanying CD-ROM contains indispensable tools for JavaBeans development, including:


*Java Development Kit 1.1 for Solaris, Windows 95, and Windows NT, with all the Beans classes and objects you need.

*The Beans Development Kit, with sample container and several example Beans demonstrating reflection, serialization, and GUI merging.
