  • Java( vs. C++: Direct, unbiased comparisons
  • Slash your learning curve!
  • Easy Q&A format
  • Extensive sample code
  • Java™ for C++ developers
  • C++ for Java™ developers

The nuts-and-bolts Java™/C++ comparison you've been waiting for!

C++ developers: Learn Java now! Java developers: Learn C++ now!

If you know either language, leverage what you already know to become an expert on both Java and C++! Slash your learning curve with this exceptionally practical reference, full of easy-to-use Q&As, sample code, and unbiased comparisons that'll make you productive fast. Discover:

  • Techniques you already know that'll keep working with little or no change
  • Subtle but critical differences between C++ and Java
  • Habits you'd better "unlearn" fast

Through real-world examples, compare how Java and C++ handle:

  • Literals, keywords, operators, and basic constructs
  • Environmental differences
  • Java and C++ classes, inheritance, polymorphism, and exception handling
  • Obtaining runtime type information about objects

Review the application services available to Java applications, and how they compare to C++ equivalents in UNIX and Windows NT™. Learn how the C++ iostream class framework compares with the Java stream classes of package java.io. Discover the basics of multiprocessing and multithreading in both Java and C++. Compare event trapping in Java and NT C++ message-driven environments, and see how Java windows management stacks up against OSF/Motif. Compare sockets, client/server programming, and TCP/IP internetworking in Java and C++.

The CD-ROM includes more than 100 sample programs, plus 32-bit Windows versions of the Java Developer's Kit (JDK) version 1.1.3™ and trial versions of Symantec's Visual Cafe™ and Visual Page™.

Whether you're migrating to Java, a Java programmer being asked to work in C++, or even a procedural programmer who wants to learn both languages, you won't find a more practical reference than The Java/C++ Cross-Reference Handbook.
