About this title

Synopsis

The book starts with a comprehensive refresher to Java's syntax, before moving on to object-oriented programming and a look at the fundamental classes and how they can be put to good use.

The rest of the book focuses on more advanced techniques, including a look at multithreading, file I/O, and five chapters on the AWT, together with how to extract the best performance from this still-immature toolkit. Next is a discussion of networking, building a class library, and a chapter on native methods -- interfacing Java to C++, to make up for current deficiencies on the Java APIs, and to use your legacy code.
