Product Description

Pro NetBeans IDE 6 Rich Client Platform Edition is the second Apress book to cover the agile, open source NetBeans IDE platform. The book focuses on the new features of NetBeans 6 as well as what has changed since NetBeans 5.5, empowering you to be a more effective and productive developer.

  • Enables you to click and use any of the Java Swing and other desktop Java graphical user interface (GUI) APIs available in Java SE 6 or prior
  • Covers working with rich client platform features available in NetBeans for building web-based application front ends
  • Shows you the web-tier development plug-ins available including JSF, Struts Action Framework 2.0, and JRuby for bringing the Ruby on Rails feature set to Java via NetBeans

For building back-end, server-side Java applications, pick up Pro NetBeans IDE 5.5 Enterprise Edition, which is based on APIs found in the Java EE 5.

What you’ll learn

  • Easily install and set up your NetBeans IDE platform environment, and organize your projects.
  • Use the NetBeans source editor, code compiler, refactoring, software development, profiler, collaboration, database, and debugger tools.
  • Develop your Java Swing application for your desktop from start to finish.
  • Deploy your Java Swing or other GUI application using Java Web Start features embedded in NetBeans.
  • Build rich client applications using NetBeans plug-in module tools/features from start to finish.
  • Extend your NetBeans IDE wish list to building Struts 2 and even JRuby (Ruby on Rails) based Java web application front ends.

This review is from: Pro NetBeans IDE 6: Rich Client Platform Edition (Expert's Voice in Java) (Paperback)
This book provides a thorough and clear walkthrough of the various functionality found in NetBeans IDE. The only thing missing from this book is guidance on when (and for whom) the various tools are useful, and when they're just overkill...

5.0 out of 5 stars The best book available for NetBeans6, 3 Mar 2009
By John L. Grotteland - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Pro NetBeans IDE 6: Rich Client Platform Edition (Expert's Voice in Java) (Paperback)
This is the 'help' menu that Sun should have provided. The author offers a broad view of what NetBeans has to offer from basic installation, to detailed java application examples, to de-bugging and version control; much more than I anticipated. Being more of an 'example type' person, I'd like to have seen more examples, but to keep the book content balanced I assume the author had to draw the line somewhere. I've tried finding other 'current' (NetBeans version 6 or higher) and there's nothing out there that compares to this book. Well worth an Amazon purchase.

1.0 out of 5 stars A very shallow book, 4 Mar 2008
By Gail Leshinsky - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Pro NetBeans IDE 6: Rich Client Platform Edition (Expert's Voice in Java) (Paperback)
I've bought this book hoping that it'll help me use the "platform", i.e. a set of reusable components that Netbeans itself is built with, to write my own app.

Instead the book is basically a shrunk paper based version of the Netbean's own help.

Absolutely worthless. Definitely returning it.
