Combining the versatility of Java with the interoperability of CORBA, Java IDL (Interface Definition Language) lets you build object-oriented systems that freely interact over the Internet or intranets, regardless of ORB or programming language. Now Programming with Java IDL offers Java developers a quick, easy way to fully master this important new Web development tool. With this valuable guide, developers learn Java IDL programming by actually building powerful applications using distributed objects. Experts Geoffrey Lewis, Steven Barber, and Ellen Siegel first bring you up to speed on CORBA, Java, and Java IDL basics. They provide you with step-by-step instructions and source code (also available at the companion Web site) to build three full-fledged distributed systems of increasing complexity. Then, combining valuable insider tips with business system programming savvy, they show you how to quickly modify the code to build your own powerful custom applications. A hands-on guide to harnessing the power of Java and CORBA to create super-versatile business applications, Programming with Java IDL is an indispensable working resource for Java developers. Visit the companion Web site at www.wiley.com/compbooks/lewis There you'll find: * All the source code from the book * Updates on latest developments in Java IDL tools and techniques.

"Java Programming with CORBA" - jetzt erscheint der Bestseller in der 3. aktualisierten und erweiterten Auflage. Anerkannte Experten zeigen anhand fortgeschrittener Techniken und Beispielen aus der Praxis, wie man einfache und komplexe Javaprogramme mit CORBA entwirft. Zunächst geben sie einen kurzen Überblick über CORBA, Java, Oject Request Brokers (ORBs) und EJB Komponenten und erläutern dann, wie man diese Technologien einsetzt, um komplette Java-Anwendungen zu entwickeln. Diese Neuauflage wurde um 50% neues Material erweitert, um den Neuerungen der kürzlich erschienenen 3. Version von CORBA Rechnung zu tragen. Topaktuelle Themen, wie z.B. Portabel Object Adaptor (POA), Remote Method Innovation (RMI) over IIOP und EJB werden ausführlich diskutiert. Mit einer Fülle detaillierter Codebeispiele. Der unverzichtbare Leitfaden für jeden Java-Entwickler und -Programmierer.

The 1st edition of this book was equally useful as an undergraduate textbook and as the lucid, no-nonsense guide required by IT professionals, featuring many code examples, screenshots and exercises. The new 2nd edition adds revised language reflecting significant changes in J2SE 5.0; update of support software; non-blocking servers; DataSource interface and Data Access Objects for connecting to remote databases.

Programming with JAVA, 3e, incorporates all the updates and enhancements added to JAVA 2 and J2SE 5.0 releases. The book presents the language concepts in extremely simple and easy-to-understand style with illustrations and examples wherever necessary. Salient Features Fully explaines the entire Java language. Discusses Java's unique features snduch as packages a interfaces. Shows how to create and implement applets. Illustrates the use of advanced concepts like multithread and graphics. Covers exception handling in depth. Debugging excercises and two full-fledged projects. Includes model questions from the Sun Certified JAVA Programmer Exam.

For programmers already familiar with Java, this book offers new techniques on how to develop distributed applications. Although it discusses four paradigms--low-level Sockets, Remote Method Invocation, CORBA, and Mobile Agents--this book does not favor any one of these technologies. It also allows the reader to judge the easiest approach for a particular domain of applications.

A comprehensive Java guide, with samples, exercises, case studies, and step-by-step instruction Beginning Java Programming: The Object Oriented Approach is a straightforward resource for getting started with one of the world's most enduringly popular programming languages. Based on classes taught by the authors, the book starts with the basics and gradually builds into more advanced concepts. The approach utilizes an integrated development environment that allows readers to immediately apply what they learn, and includes step-by-step instruction with plenty of sample programs. Each chapter contains exercises based on real-world business and educational scenarios, and the final chapter uses case studies to combine several concepts and put readers' new skills to the test. Beginning Java Programming: The Object Oriented Approach provides both the information and the tools beginners need to develop Java skills, from the general concepts of object-oriented programming. Learn to: Understand the Java language and object-oriented concept implementation Use Java to access and manipulate external data Make applications accessible to users with GUIs Streamline workflow with object-oriented patterns The book is geared for those who want to use Java in an applied environment while learning at the same time. Useful as either a course text or a stand-alone self-study program, Beginning Java Programming is a thorough, comprehensive guide.
