Editorial Review Product Description Distinguishing this text from other introductory Java books is the authors’ extensive use of an "active learning" approach to presenting the material through abundant use of graphics, visualization exercises, animations, numerous full and partial program examples, group projects, and best practices. These and other pedagogical devices facilitate hands-on, interactive learning, and make the book equally appropriate for use in "traditional" lecture environments, a computer-equipped classroom, or lab environment.

Editorial Review Product Description As software becomes more complex, and the Web is leveraged further, the need for messaging software continues to grow. Virtually all software written today requires at least one form of internal, and even external, communication. Java Messaging explores the various methods of intra-process and inter-process messaging for Java software, such as JavaBean events, JMS, JAX-RPC, JAXM, SOAP, and Web Services. Programmers will learn the basics of these APIs, as well as how, when, and why to use each one, including how to use them in combination, such as combining SOAP with JMS over a WAN. The book begins by walking the reader through simple intra-process communication using JavaBean events. A set of classes is constructed that extend JavaBean events beyond one JVM, transparently using JMS. The messaging paradigms of JMS are explained thoroughly, including in-depth discussions on the theory and mechanics of message queues. Design patterns and helper classes are also explored, which ultimately combine to form a generic messaging framework that helps programmers avoid common pitfalls. This framework, explained throughout the book, provides for the seamless integration of JMS with SOAP Web Services that is required to build distributed applications. Starting from the first chapter, a comprehensive sample application (an online stock trading system) is built using the framework and messaging paradigms discussed in the book. By the end of the book, programmers will not only understand the various messaging paradigms, but they will also understand how to architect complex distributed applications that use them together – with a framework that provides a running start. KEY FEATURES • Explores the various methods of intra-process and inter-process messaging for Java software, such as JavaBean events, JMS, JAX-RPC, JAXM, SOAP, and Web Services• Provides programmers with the practical knowledge of when and how to use each API alone, as well as together• Explains the messaging paradigms of JMS, including in-depth discussions on the theory and mechanics of message queues • Includes a development framework of classes for programmers to apply to their own projects• Teaches concepts through a comprehensive sample application (an online stock trading system) that uses the framework andmessaging paradigms discussed within the book• Includes a CD-ROM with all of the sample code, the complete messaging toolkit that is explored throughout the book, open source tools, and all of the figures from the book On the CD! * Source Code: Includes the sample applications referenced within each chapter * Figures: Contains all of the figures from the book, arranged by chapter * Java Tools: Includes the open-source tools used in the development of the book’s sample applications and toolkit* Toolkit: Contains the final, complete, messaging toolkit that is explored throughout the bookSYSTEM REQUIREMENTS (WIN) Windows NT/2000/XP/2003; 256 MB RAM minimum, 512 MB recommended; 250 MB of available disk space, 500 MB recommended; J2SE version 1.4.2_06 or higher; CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive; keyboard and mouse, or other pointing device Customer Reviews (6)

Editorial Review Product Description Unlike many Flex books that presume readers want to develop applications from scratch, Flex on Java is for developers in the real world-where Flex is one more technology being added to existing systems developed in Java, and where integration is the key indicator of success. Written for Java developers beginning to use Flex, Flex on Java shows how to use Flex alongside existing Java applications, and how to integrate Flex using familiar server-side technologies such as Spring, EJBs, JMS, and more. The authors, both Agile development experts, focus on Agile and test-driven development to enable readers to redesign applications that deliver more value and with zero defects. Throughout the book, readers will apply these techniques to refactoring a single application into a rich internet application using Flex and the BlazeDS framework. |

Editorial Review Product Description * Memory model * Cancellation * Portable parallel programming * Utility classes for concurrency control The Java platform provides a broad and powerful set of APIs, tools, and technologies. One of its most powerful capabilities is the built-in support for threads. This makes concurrent programming an attractive yet challenging option for programmers using the Java programming language. This book shows readers how to use the Java platform's threading model more precisely by helping them to understand the patterns and tradeoffs associated with concurrent programming. You will learn how to initiate, control, and coordinate concurrent activities using the class java.lang.Thread, the keywords synchronized and volatile, and the methods wait, notify, and notifyAll. In addition, you will find detailed coverage of all aspects of concurrent programming, including such topics as confinement and synchronization, deadlocks and conflicts, state-dependent action control, asynchronous message passing and control flow, coordinated interaction, and structuring web-based and computational services. The book targets intermediate to advanced programmers interested in mastering the complexities of concurrent programming. Taking a design pattern approach, the book offers standard design techniques for creating and implementing components that solve common concurrent programming challenges. The numerous code examples throughout help clarify the subtleties of the concurrent programming concepts discussed. Within the dozens of techniques and tips offered here, this book accomplishes at least two goals. First, it shows how concurrency is implemented by default within Java, with material on how built-in features (like the synchronized keyword and its memory model) can be expected to perform when dealing with multiple threads. Naturally, Java threads themselves are also covered, including priorities, scheduling, and the like. Much of this book looks at ways to improve performance of concurrent code beyond the simple default strategies. After defining criteria for measuring concurrent code (such as safety and "liveness," a measure of running live threads effectively), the book presents dozens of techniques for letting threads work together safely. For the working Java programmer, coverage of patterns that have been implemented in the downloadable java.concurrency package will be the most immediately useful. (Within this nearly encyclopedic survey, short code snippets are used for every pattern and concept.) Though theoretical at times, this book offers plenty of ideas and sample code to get you started thinking of ways to improve multithreaded code. Impressively comprehensive, Concurrent Programming in Java offers a veritable bible of techniques for doing two things at once with threads in Java. It's a worthwhile guide to the state-of-the-art strategies for improving the performance of your Java threads. --Richard Dragan Topics covered: Threads and concurrency in Java, design considerations (safety, liveness, and performance), Before/After Patterns, layering, adapters, immutability and synchronization, deadlock, resource ordering, the Java Memory Model and concurrency, using the java.concurrency package, confinement, refactoring for concurrency, mutexes, read-write locks, recovering from failure, notifications, semaphores, latches, exchanges, transactions, one-way messages, worker threads, polling and event-driven I/O, parallelism techniques (fork/join, computation trees, and barriers), Communicating Sequential Processes (CSP).

Editorial Review Product Description All of Java's Input/Output (I/O) facilities are based on streams, which provide simple ways to read and write data of different types. Java provides many different kinds of streams, each with its own application. The universe of streams is divided into four large categories: input streams and output streams, for reading and writing binary data; and readers and writers, for reading and writing textual (character) data. You're almost certainly familiar with the basic kinds of streams--but did you know that there's a CipherInputStream for reading encrypted data? And a ZipOutputStream for automatically compressing data? Do you know how to use buffered streams effectively to make your I/O operations more efficient? Java I/O, 2nd Edition has been updated for Java 5.0 APIs and tells you all you ever need to know about streams--and probably more. A discussion of I/O wouldn't be complete without treatment of character sets and formatting. Java supports the Unicode standard, which provides definitions for the character sets of most written languages. Consequently, Java is the first programming language that lets you do I/O in virtually any language. Java also provides a sophisticated model for formatting textual and numeric data. Java I/O, 2nd Edition shows you how to control number formatting, use characters aside from the standard (but outdated) ASCII character set, and get a head start on writing truly multilingual software. Java I/O, 2nd Edition includes: The book opens with an overview ofJava's stream capabilities. (The author defends Java's lack of supportfor console input/output (I/O) since today's applications usegraphical user interfaces anyway.) He shows how to open, read, andwrite local files in Java applications. His file viewer examplepresents data in a variety of formats. (This example is improvedseveral times until it winds up supporting different internationalcharacter sets by the end of the book.) Next the author coversnetwork programming using URL and network streams, includingsockets. Sections on filters show how classes can filter outcharacters within streams. The tour moves forward to cover datastreams, which permit streaming of Java's primitive datatypes. Details on how to communicate within Java programs using pipesfollow. In a notable chapter, the author thoroughly explicates Java'ssupport for encryption, including hashing, the Data EncryptionStandard (DES) algorithm, and ciphers. The last portion of the bookexplains object serialization, which allows Java objects to save andrestore their state, plus it includes sections on Java's support fordata compression (and ZIP files) and multilingual Unicode charactersets. (Java is prepared to handle virtually any of the world'slanguages with its reader and writer classes.) Finally, the authorshows how you can format output in Java using its support for widthand numeric precision APIs. In all, Elliotte makes a good case thatJava streams are a flexible and powerful part of the language, andcertainly not a limitation. --Richard Dragan Customer Reviews (30)
