Java 12 Unleashed

"Java P2P Unleashed" provides a single source for Java developers who want to develop P2P systems. The book explains the benefits of each technology and shows how to fit the P2P "pieces" together - both in building new systems and integrating with existing ones. starts with a discussion of the P2P architecture, referencing similarities with existing, familiar systems while previewing several types of P2P applications. It explains how to plan ahead for security, routing, performance and other issues when developing a P2P application. Each technology included in the book - JXTA, Jini, JavaSpaces, J2EE, Web services - is approached from a P2P perspective, focusing on implementation concerns Java developers will face while using them. The last section includes several large-scale examples of different P2P applications - managing content, building communities, integrating services, routing messages, and using intelligent agents to gather information. The final chapter looks ahead to future developments in Java P2P technologies.

Android Programming Unleashed is the most comprehensive and technically sophisticated guide to best-practice Android development with today's powerful new versions of Android: 4.1 (Jelly Bean) and 4.0.3 (Ice Cream Sandwich). Offering the exceptional breadth and depth developers have come to expect from the Unleashed series, it covers everything programmers need to know to develop robust, high-performance Android apps that deliver a superior user experience. Leading developer trainer Bintu Harwani begins with basic UI controls, then progresses to more advanced topics, finally covering how to develop feature rich Android applications that can access Internet-based services and store data. He illuminates each important SDK component through complete, self-contained code examples that show developers the most effective ways to build production-ready code. Coverage includes: understanding the modern Android platform from the developer's standpoint... using widgets, containers, resources, selection widgets, dialogs, and fragments... supporting actions and persistence... incorporating menus, ActionBars, content providers, and databases... integrating media and animations... using web, map, and other services... supporting communication via messaging, contacts, and emails... publishing Android apps, and much more.

This complete reference covers all the core APIs of the Java 2 platform as well as secondary topics that experienced Java programmers need to know. The CD-ROM contains Borland JBuilder 2, Kowa tools, and all the applets and code examples from the book.

JSP developers encounter unique problems when building web applications that require intense database connectivity. MySQL and JSP Web Applications addresses the challenges of building data-driven applications based on the JavaServer Pages development model. MySQL and JSP Web Applications begins with an overview of the core technologies required for JSP database development--JavaServer Pages, JDBC, and the database schema. The book then outlines and presents an Internet commerce application that demonstrates concepts such as receiving and processing user input, designing and implementing business rules, and balancing the user load on the server. Through the JDBC (Java DataBase Connector), the developer can communicate with most commercial databases, such as Oracle. The solutions presented in MySQL and JSP Web Applications center on the open source tools MySQL and Tomcat, allowing the reader an affordable way to test applications and experiment with the book's examples.

With the release of WebLogic Server 7.0 in June 2002, BEA positioned WebLogic Server as the premier J2EE Web Services development platform. With the next release in late 2002, WLS will integrate WebLogic Workshop and other key tools to provide developers with a stable, market-leading product designed for the next generation of Java applications based on Web Services on the latest J2EE platform. BEA WebLogic Server is the leading J2EE application server, holding almost 40% of the market share in this competitive category. WebLogic Server Unleashedis designed to be the definitive reference work for the WLS developer, offering an in-depth look at the capabilities provided by WLS 7.X and illustrating the best development practices.
