About this title

Synopsis

Exploring Java introduces the basics of Java, the object-oriented programming language for networked applications. The ability to create animated World Wide Web pages sparked the rush to Java. But what also makes this language so important is that it's truly portable. The code runs on any machine that provides a Java interpreter, whether Windows 95, Windows NT, the Macintosh, or any flavor of UNIX. With a practical, hands-on approach characteristic of O'Reilly's Nutshell Handbooks(R), Exploring Java shows you how to write dynamic web pages. But that's only the beginning. This book shows you how to quickly get up to speed writing Java applets (programs executed within web browsers) and other applications, including networking programs, content and protocol handlers, and security managers. Exploring Java is the first book in a new Java documentation series from O'Reilly that will keep pace with the rapid Java developments. Covers Java's latest Beta release.
