More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
Comprehensive and incremental, this text focuses on rapid Java application development. The early chapters introduces JavaBeans—the basis of rapid Java application development; while subsequent chapters apply—step-by-step— rapid application development techniques to build comprehensive, robust and useful graphics applications, database and client/server applications, and distributed applications.
From the Back Cover
This book introduces the concepts and practice of advanced Java programming to facilitate developing and managing Java programs. Aided with the tool, JBuilder 3, students develop Java programs more productively, while learning advanced Java programming more effectively. Divided into two categories-advanced Java references and JBuilder specific references-this text covers advanced Java programming and rapid Java application development.
He incorporation of Java into computer science curricula has increased the need for an advanced Java text; especially a book aimed at rapid application development for Internet and Web applications using Java. Daniel Liang's book introduces the concepts of JavaBeans, bean event model, model-view control, developing customized components, Swing Components, creating custom layout managers, bean persistence, bound properties and constraint properties, bean introspection and customization, Java database programming, and distributed programming using remote method invocation or CORBA. The reader will find that the main thread of the book, however, is to promote rapid Java application development for developing programs efficiently and effectively.
- Comprehensive coverage provides fundamentals of rapid Java application development
- Hands-on representative examples give detailed step-by-step instruction for building a project using JBuilder's UI Designer, BeansExpress, and a variety of wizards
- The source code of examples is contained on the companion CD-ROM
- Brief overviews, objective lists, and easy-to-follow style of examples provide the reader with the elements to get the most out of the material
- Companion Website available to supplement book www.prenhall.com/liang

Best JBuilder3 guide, great examples, important tips
22 Mar 2000
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Recently I have been creating Java beans using JBuilder 3 and have searched everywhere, including the newsgroups, for help in depth to no avail. On the custom property editors for beans topic alone the book is worth every penny. It took me days to figure out I had to delete the .pme files manually and restart JBuilder to see new bean properties. I submitted this bug to Borland with of course no response yet. On p. 468 Liang gives this exact Tip. I used to teach and there was a basic rule of thumb. People are very good at generalizing, they learn from the specific to the general. That means teach by example, good complete full examples like this book, and people can generalize from them. The numerous non-trivial examples look very good, they have already given me some good ideas. Highly recommended.

Rapid Java application development using JBuilder3
18 Sep 2000
Format:Paperback
This is an excellent book, one of the very few for TEACHING Advance Java using Borland JBuilder3 RAD. There are a lot of Advance Java books out in the market but virtually all of them are what I would refer to as "reference books" .... this one by Dr. Liang is a teaching text book.
This is a book for you only if you already KNOW the java fundamentals ... e.g. classes, inheritance, AWT, interfaces, etc. and you want to extend that knowledge into the advance aspects of Java such as Java Beans, Swing classes, JDBC, etc.
I use this text by manually typing in all of Liang's example programs ... they all work. The only glitch I found was a few programs that required user's local resource (e.g. "images/indiana.gif" was not supplied) but didn't bother to mention it to the reader.
Enterprise Java Beans and Swing Classes are covered thoroughly. I wish there were more on RMI, Corba and something on Servlets.
Buy this book if you want to learn some of the advanced aspects of Java using JBuilder3.

Swing, JDBC ... all explained
13 Jun 2000
Format:Paperback
Liang's book helped me tap into an MsAccess97 database using firstly, JDBC, and secondly, dataExpress components. The explanation on the Swing components is also good and practical, particularly ilustrating how to design using the model-view architecture with JList, JCombobox and JTable components. JBuilder 3 may also be configured to use the recently released JDK1.3. Very clear and easy. Great book ... Thank you, Mr Liang.
