Description

Appropriate for all introductory-to-intermediate level courses in programming with Java; for all courses preparing students for the Java Programmer Certification exam; and for all introductory courses in computer programming that utilize Java.

In Java 2 Primer Plus, respected Java 2 programmer, architect, and instructor Steven Haines helps students master the entire Java language, from basic concepts and syntax through advanced topics such as RMI, JDBC, and network socket programming. Drawing on his extensive classroom teaching experience, Haines balances theory with practicality, presenting the language in ways that are exceptionally clear to both new computer science students and more experienced students who are working with Java for the first time. Once students have mastered the core skills of Java development, Haines offers a detailed and practical introduction to Web development with Java servlets, JSPs, component-based JSP pages, custom tag libraries, and XML. The book concludes with an expert overview of architecting robust, scalable Java-based Web applications.
