Head First Java
by Kathy Sierra and Bert Bates
1 dive in A Quick Dip Breaking the Sur face Come on, the water’s great! We’ll dive right in and write some code, then compile and run it. We’re talking syntax, looping and branching, and a look at what makes Java so cool. You’ll be coding in no time. Java takes you to new places. From its humble release to the public as the (wimpy) version 1.02, Java seduced programmers with its friendly syntax, object-oriented features, memory management, and best of all—the promise of portability. The lure of write-once/run- anywhere is just too strong. A devoted following exploded, as programmers fought against bugs, limitations, and, oh yeah, the fact that it was dog slow. But that was ages ago. If you’re just starting in Java, you’re lucky. Some of us had to walk five miles in the snow, uphill both ways (barefoot), to get even the most trivial applet to

Head First Design Patterns
by Eric Freeman, Elisabeth Ro..., Bert Bates, and Kathy Sierra
1 Intro to Design Patterns Welcome to h g g Design Patterns Now that we’re living in Objectville, we’ve just got to get into Design Patterns... everyone is doing them. Soon we’ll be the hit of Jim and Betty’s Wednesday night patterns group! Someone has already solved your problems. In this chapter, you’ll learn why (and how) you can exploit the wisdom and lessons learned by other developers who’ve been down the same design problem road and survived the trip. Before we’re done, we’ll look at the use and benefits of design patterns, look at some key OO design principles, and walk through an example of how one pattern works. The best way to use patterns is to load your brain with them and then recognize places in your designs and existing applications where you can apply them. Instead of code reuse, with patterns you get experience reuse. this is

Head First Servlets and JSP
Passing the Sun Certified Web Component Developer Exam
by Bryan Basham, Kathy Sierra, and Bert Bates
Praise for Head First Servlets and JSP™ “This Head First Servlets book is as good as the Head First EJB book, which made me laugh AND gave me 97% on the exam!” —Jef Cumps, J2EE consultant, Cronos “For our Servlet/JSP classes, we bought more than ten books, without finding any one really satisfying our teaching needs... Until we found the pedagogical gem you now hold in your hands! Head First books simply make us better teachers... Thank you so much for that!” —Philippe Maquet: Senior Instructor at Loop Factory, Brussels “There is no better introduction into the Servlet technology on the market than Head First Servlets & JSP. If you are new to web development with Java and you want an easy read which you really understand, then you have no other choice but to grab a copy of this book.” —Oliver Roell, SCJP SCJD, SCBCD, SCWCD, and SCEA ,

Head First EJB
Passing the Sun Certified Business Component Developer Exam
by Kathy Sierra and Bert Bates
1 Intro to EJB h g g Welcome to EJB You’re gonna love EJB! And boy won’t Jim and Betty be envious when your enterprise back-end is bigger than theirs... you might even get that promotion! Enterprise JavaBeans are easy. Well, at least when you compare EJB to what you’d have to do to write your own scalable, transactional, secure, concurrent enterprise server. In this chapter, we’ll develop, deploy, and run an EJB application, before diving into the details. Before we’re done, we’ll look at the use, benefits, and characteristics of EJB, and we’ll look (briefly) at how EJB containers work. We’ll take a high-level look at the architecture of EJB and learn about the three bean types. The more you understand from this chapter, the less you’ll have to memorize later, so don’t skip it. (If you’re an EJB expert, you can probably get away with just a quick
