Beginning with basic ideas, Winder progresses to the process of creating useful object-oriented applications. Along the way, all the core features of Java are covered, including the use of exceptions and multi-threading.

Jia (software engineering, DePaul University) helps readers develop skills in designing software, and especially in writing object- oriented programs using Java. The text provides broad coverage of object-oriented technology, including object-oriented modeling using the Unified Modeling Language (UML), object-oriented design using design patterns, and object-oriented programming using Java. This second edition offers expanded coverage of design patterns, enhanced material on UML, and a new introduction to the iterative software development process made popular by extreme programming. Learning features include chapter summaries, exercises, and projects.

Explore the latest Java-based software development techniques and methodologies through the project-based approach in this practical guide. Unlike books that use abstract examples and lots of theory, Real-World Software Development shows you how to develop several relevant projects while learning best practices along the way. With this engaging approach, junior developers capable of writing basic Java code will learn about state-of-the-art software development practices for building modern, robust and maintainable Java software. You’ll work with many different software development topics that are often excluded from software develop how-to references. Featuring real-world examples, this book teaches you techniques and methodologies for functional programming, automated testing, security, architecture, and distributed systems.

Fra bagsiden: As a platform, Java defines the services needed to connect binary components at runtime safely and reliably. To truly take advantage of alle Java has to offer, you must consider not just development, but also deployment, and not just objects, but also components. The book delves into the component-oriented features of the Java platform, thoroughly discussing class loading, refelction, serialization, native interoperation and code generation.

Now updated for the latest release of Java, the Second Edition of Modern Software Development Using Java continues to blaze a new path for today's CS2 students. Tymann and Schneider's contemporary approach focuses on what students need to learn in the CS2 course in order to appreciate what is truly important today in the areas of software design and development. This text covers such current software development ideas as object-oriented design, UML, data structure libraries, net-centric programming, threads, and GUIs, all presented in a way that is fully accessible and motivating. The new edition has been fully revised to take advantage of the new features in Java 5.0, and all material is Java 6.0 compliant.

This book takes the reader from the basic principles of object-oriented design and programming using Java, through to class library construction and application development. It teaches fundamental programming concepts, object-oriented principles and how to exploit class-based abstraction. This is supported by a detailed description of how programs are designed and is illustrated by substantial examples. With the core concepts in place the book then provides a Java programming language reference detailing each language feature from types and variables through to classes, exceptions and threads. A key part of the reference is the provision of many small example programs, allowing the reader to see how the language features are used.

The author of Developing Applications with Visual Basic and UML (Addison-Wesley, 2000), a consultant on object-oriented distributed systems, presents a large-scale application to explain the lifecycle of building robust Java applications with the Unified Modeling Language using Rational's Software's Unified Plan. Reed also makes a short detour into his Synergy Process. Appends material on the Unified Plan and the BEA WebLogic application server. Assumes programmers' knowledge of Java and a willingness to evolve past a cavalier attitude toward project planning.
