Abstract

From the Publisher:Follow your own path to expertise with this self-guided tour of the Java(TM) programming language. Written by two members of the JavaSoft team at Sun Microsystems, the book employs a hands-on interactive approach to teaching Java basics, object-oriented concepts, applet programming, and everything else you need to know to become a proficient Java programmer. Through a task-oriented, example-driven approach, The Java Tutorial introduces you to fundamental concepts and applications. Designed so that you can customize your own path through the specific information you need, the book explains the nuts and bolts of the language, applet construction, and the fundamental Java classes. You will also learn about more advanced topics such as creating a graphical user interface (GUI), using multiple threads, and working with Java's networking capabilities.This Second Edition has been extensively updated to cover API changes in Java 1.1 regarding UI, networking, and I/O, and to include the latest Java language developments. New and updated material includes: broadcasting to other applications via a multicast socket new I/O features, including character streams and object serialization the latest developments in applet tags using the 1.1 AWT event system new language features, such as nested classes tips for writing 100% Pure Java programs updating 1.0 programs to use the 1.1 APIIn addition, the Second Edition has been revised and reorganized to offer a stronger and more cohesive presentation, making this best-selling and award-winning book even better. The Tutorial now starts with a new lesson that introduces you to the Java phenomenon and provides a foundation for understanding the rest of the book.The accompanying CD-ROM contains the Tutorial and all its code samples, versions of the Java Development Kit(TM) (JDK) and the JDK documentation for each major platform, a 1.1-compatible version of the Swing/JFC package of GUI components, and the HotJava(TM) Browser. The CD version of the Tutorial is a browser-friendly version thatincludes information not found in this book, such as draft lessons on internationalizing Java programs, calling non-Java libraries from Java programs, using the security API, developing JavaBeans(TM) components, and using the GUI components in the Swing/JFC package.
