From the Publisher
A guide to the more advanced features of Java. For advanced programmers, this may be the most sophisticated Java book on the market. This book covers a wide variety of advanced Java topics and techniques that are rarely discussed elsewhere. These include object-oriented analysis and design with Java, metaprogramming techniques, building Java debuggers, Java interprocess and inter-thread communications, 3D modeling, implementing generic data structures, and techniques for accessing third-party libraries. The author identifies inconsistencies and pitfalls in Java, helps identify ways to optimize Java code for faster performance, and provides well-reasoned answers for the questions that advanced Java programmers encounter. The CD-ROM includes C2j, software for automatically translating C++ code to Java; the Ltk toolkit, a lightweight alternative to AWT, and a visual debugger developed especially for this book.
