Synopsis:

New, revised, and updated, the bestselling series introduces Core Java, The Signature Edition. Now programmers can get to the heart of Java quickly and easily with this book.

Review: Core Java, a serious book for experienced programmers, offers comprehensive coverage of all Java features and syntax. You can use it to get to the heart of Java quickly and easily, from the fundamentals to expert tips and tricks. Previous knowledge of object-oriented techniques is helpful but not required because the book devotes two chapters to object-oriented programming and how it is implemented in Java. Additional chapters focus on aspects of the Abstract Window Toolkit (AWT), including graphics and user interface design.

Other topics include applet creation, data structures, exception and error handling, I/O, multithreading, network programming, database connectivity, and working with remote objects (remote method invocation). Throughout, you'll find tips comparing and contrasting features of Java to Visual Basic and C/C++. The CD-ROM includes all source code and applets discussed in the book and the JavaSoft Java Developer's Kit (JDK) v. 1.0.2. This book is perfect for Visual Basic and COBOL programmers who want to broaden their marketability and for C/C++ programmers who want to add Java to their skill set because of its resemblance to C++.
