Product Description

Product Description

The first edition of XML and Java earned rave reviews for its exceptionally practical, thorough, and example-rich coverage of XML development with Java. Now, the authors -- all leading-edge XML experts from IBM -- have updated the book to reflect the latest XML tools, technologies, and best practices. From start to finish, they provide expert insight and "jumpstart" examples that are immediately applicable to real-world problems. Coverage includes: parsing and generating XML documents; working with DOM/DOM2 and SAX/SAX2; schemas and validation; document manipulation with XPath and XSLT; and utilizing advanced XML parsers. The authors introduce XML programming with servlets and JSP; XML database integration; XML messaging and Web services; data binding and security solutions; and more.

From the Back Cover

Fully revised to cover the latest standards and technologies, XML and Java™, Second Edition provides the practical solutions developers need to design powerful and portable Web-based applications. Featuring step-by-step examples, this book focuses on harnessing the power of Java™ and XML together to streamline the development process.

XML and Java™, Second Edition provides new coverage of emerging areas such as document management, databases, messaging, servlets, JDBC, data binding, security, and more. It begins with an overview of XML programming techniques, standard APIs, and tools. Building upon this foundation, the book goes on to cover the latest technologies, including DOM Level 2, SAX2, XSLT, SOAP, WSDL, and UDDI. It explores the role of these major middleware technologies in XML and Java-based Web application development, as well as the limitations and potential pitfalls.

Topic coverage includes:

  • The role of XML and Java in Web applications
  • Parsing XML documents
  • How to use the Document Object Model (DOM) Level 1 and DOM Level 2 APIs
  • How to work with SAX
  • Techniques for making the most of existing XML processors
  • W3C XML Schema and OASIS RELAX NG
  • The XML application server, XML and databases, and XML messaging, including SOAP
  • Techniques for storing XML documents by using JDBC
  • Information on Web services, including WSDL and UDDI
  • How to represent data in XML (data binding)
  • Standard techniques for securing B2B applications
  • XML Schema languages

    Combining a team of experienced authors with a practical cookbook-style approach and packed with useful sample code, XML and Java™, Second Edition provides the most complete toolset available for developers navigating the next frontier of Web-based business applications.

    If you're looking for a first book about Java and Xml here you have a good one. It'd better used if you have previous knowledge of what XML is. It focuses mainly on IBM XML4J parser and now it's a bit oldie but throws some very interesting ideas.

    I'd suggest to go with Java and Xml by Brett McLaughling after this one.

    Perfect book for application architects, not for junior SE 22 Sep 1999
    By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
    Format:Paperback
    The title of the book clearly suggested that this is not a beginner's book for either XML or Java. Although it is more appropriately named XML and Java Servlet. Because this book uses Servlets as a framework for web applications (which is a *VERY* good idea). This book presents ideas to system architects about ways to put together enabled web applications whose nature implies extensibility. The most valuable thing in this book is: 1. Explain why do we want to use XML (Important!) 2. How to parse, generate, and manipulate XML with concise examples. 3. Ideas on types of applications we can do with XML and the Servlet framework. 4. How to build tools such as LMX and SQLX which is quite essential in three-tiered systems. 5. You can read it in 2 days provided you're pretty familiar with Servlets and web application.

    Don't buy this book! 19 Aug 1999
    By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
    Format:Paperback
    Ok, I read the review and bought this book. Its woefully out of date and the examples need huge tweaking before they work.

    If you are trying to learn XML find another book.

    If you are planning to learn Java find another book.

    If you are interested in servlets borrow this book and read chapter 7. Then give it back to the poor guy who bought it.

    The coverage of XML itself is really poor. I was reading the XML specs and thought I'd get some help. Sorry no such luck. XML is show somewhat but no defns.

    Want to use the DOM (Document Object Model). Sorry no such luck. Coverage it terrible. Want to use XSL? Sorry no coverage at all!

    Want to use SAX? Get ready to try try try again!

    ok. I'll give them some credit as english is clearly not there native language!

    Great book (if it fits your expectations...) 9 April 2000
    By Jan Van Bulck - Published on Amazon.com
    Format:Paperback
    .

    Buy this book when:

    (1) You want to learn how to integrate XML in your Internet/Intranet-based infrastructure. (The title mentions 'Web Applications'... do not expect the book to focus on 'Web Sites'. It's more about XML as a storage mechanism, the secure exchange of XML messages over HTTP,...) (2) You value the insight in how experienced developers model their application (using Design Patterns, reusability, etc) (3) A very readable book.

    Do not buy this book when:

    (1) You're looking for information the latest implementations of XML Parsers, XSL Transformers (the book was published before XSL became 'established'), XML database servers,etc. (2) You're looking for complete, useful applications you can re-use 'straight-out-of-the-box'. (3) You're looking for information on XML as a way to manage the content on your web side.
