Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Java Enterprise in a Nutshell gives advanced Java developers a one-stop resource for programming with the disparate APIs required for today's enterprise development, including JDBC, RMI, servlets and EJBs. Beginning with JDBC database programming, the book gives a chapter-by-chapter tour of various enterprise development APIs, including program strategies for each API. For JDBC, the book includes new Java 2 JDBC enhancements like batch and recordsets.

Next comes Java's Remote Method Invocation (RMI) classes for calling remote code. Then it's on to using Java IDL and CORBA basics. A chapter on Java servlets will get you started delivering dynamically generated HTML using Java on Web servers, including useful material on cookies and session management. After coverage of the Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) comes a solid exploration of EJBs with material on both session and entity beans. Specifics here include home and remote interfaces, EJB containers, stateless vs stateful session beans, and entity beans for accessing corporate databases.

Overall, this handy and readable guide to the latest in Java APIs can be truly invaluable to the developer bringing Java to the corporate enterprise for the first time. --Richard Dragan

Review
'It really is a useful Java Enterprise referenced and it deserves a place of honour on my desk.' - Steve Cornish, Cvu, May 2000. 'The API reference contains more information than the documentation which comes with the APIs themselves'... Java Enterprise in a Nutshell is a very good reference for the Java Entreprise APIs. The introduction already contains enough information to get started and the reference sections are very complete and useful.' - Hubert Klein Ikkink, Developers Review, February 2000.

4.0 out of 5 stars A quick reference masterpiece - but does not stand alone., 21 Jan 2000
By A Customer
Java Enterprise in a Nutshell contains the standard treatment from O'Reilly of its subject. A "must-have" for enterprise developers who prefer paper, rather than on-line, documentation. The book describes itself as "an indispensable quick reference", and this is exactly what it is - the descriptions are cursory, but the quick reference section is a masterpiece, and every reference book should have indexes like the two in this book. The book is excellent value as a memory jogger for practising developers, but for beginners, students and the answers to detailed questions, use a different book.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good overview of Enterprise subjects, 17 May 2001
By A Customer
If you want to get a quick overview of what's involved in the Java Enterprise then this book covers most of it. Brief - and you'll probably need to refer to more in depth sources to expand on any of the subjects as each subject is covered in just one chapter. Can get wordy.

4.0 out of 5 stars Exactly as the title says, 21 Aug 2001
By A Customer
Very good book, however perhaps needs updating for inclusion of JSP's and JMS. I especially liked the SQL reference.

Superb introduction to JDBC and ODBC and MySql connectivity along with how to make a Enterprise system have RMI connectivity.

Must buy.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not as deep as some, but great value for money
One of the seemingly endless "in a Nutshell" series from O'Reilly, this book follows the basic series format. Read more
