Review

Mastering JavaBeans is a comprehensive guide to the ins and outs of developing with JavaBeans. The book provides an excellent short introduction to the history of computing, including a detailed chronology so the reader can see where Java and JavaBeans fit in.

The rest of the book concerns itself with the fundamentals of JavaBeans, including chapters on properties, events, serialization, introspection, and reflection. The more advanced topics covered here are Bean customizers and custom graphical user interface (GUI) property editors. Generally, the source code is excellent and clearly presented.

The author completes this book by offering his own set of toolkits (libraries) with many of the routines used in the samples. The author offers additional routines for such common programming tasks as strings, numerical processing, and debugging.
