Description:... Java Examples in a Nutshellis chock full of practical real-world Java programming examples. The author of the bestsellingJava in a Nutshellhas created an entire book of example programs that you can learn from and modify for your own use. If you learn best "by example," this is the book for you.
This book is a companion volume toJava in a Nutshell. WhileJava in a Nutshellis a quick-reference at heart, it also includes an accelerated introduction to Java programming.Java Examples in a Nutshellpicks up where that book leaves off, providing a suite of example programs for novice Java programmers and experts alike. This book doesn't hold your hand or supply detailed explanations of Java syntax or method calls; it simply delivers well-commented working examples that help you explore the wide range of what is possible with Java 1.1. Each chapter concludes with programming exercises that suggest further avenues for building on what you have learned.
Java Examples in a Nutshellcontains all of the example programs from the first edition ofJava in a Nutshell, completely updated for Java 1.1. In addition, the I/O, networking, and GUI chapters have been augmented to include even more practical examples. It also expands on the examples from the second edition ofJava in a Nutshellthat demonstrate the new features in Java 1.1, including the new AWT event handling model, the JavaBeans API, internationalization, object serialization, and reflection.
In addition, this book provides never-before-published programming examples for remote method invocation, database connectivity, and security -- important elements of the Java Enterprise APIs. Finally, the book offers a glimpse of the features of "Swing," the set of new components that are part of the forthcoming Java Foundation Classes (JFC).
