Synopsis

The quickest way to learn how to build Java and JavaScript applications

• Complete working programs illustrate every major concept
• Fully covers JDK^TM 1.2 and the class libraries you need to create full–scale applications.

This powerful book/CD package is for C and C++ programmers who′d like to quickly learn how to build full–scale applications in Java and JavaScript. Revised and expanded from its bestselling predecessor, Java for C/C++ Programmers, it features the same rapid skill–building format that allows you to produce simple Java programs within an hour, and more complex ones within a few days, by building on C and C++ concepts you already know.

You′ll quickly become familiar with all Java and JavaScript features, including all the major new APIs that you′ll need to create full–scale business applications. Through a series of progressively more complicated fully working applications, this guide schools you in basic and advanced techniques for building full–blown applications using Java Foundation Classes, JavaBeans^TM, JDBC, NMI, and RMI.

Java 1.2 and JavaScript for C and C++ Programmers:

• Fully covers Java through JDK^TM 1.2
• Shows how to link Java applets with JavaScript
• Teaches how to integrate Java with ActiveX
• Shows how to interface C, C++, and Java applications
• Demonstrates how to integrate video using the Java Media Framework.

On the CD–ROM you′ll find:

• All the source code from the fully working programs in the book
• Exciting demos, including a drawing program demonstrating selectable and resizable objects, a robot war simulation, and valuable utilities, including a custom layout manager, a search applet, and an online book service servlet
• Trial versions of the Supercede development environment, WingSoft Editor, WingSoft Decompiler, and TextPad
• ObjectSpace′s highly acclaimed Generic Component Library for Java and Voyager distributed computing technology
• Try–and–Buy versions of Java^TM Studio^TM and Java^TM WorkShop^TM.
