O'Reilly books are rarely for neophytes, but advanced users swear by them, and these will be no exception. Englander covers a hot Java subtopic for students, programmers, and professionals already familar with Java and object-oriented programming. He discusses events, event adapters, properties, persistence, java archive files, the BeanBox tool, property editors, ActiveX, and the java.beans Package. Flanagan's work is the book Java programmers want nearby when they are at the keyboard. A complete ready-reference work, this belongs in all collections supporting programmers. Java is a constantly changing language so Nutshell will be coming out often with new editions; always have the newest one on hand. Reese goes beyond simple applet design to relational databases, SQL, object-oriented database applications, application servers, and remote object manipulation. The examples used throughout the book are based on a banking application designed in Java.

Product Description
Java Beans is the most important new development in Java this year. Beans is the next generation of Java technology that not only adds features the language lacked, but also lets Java programs interoperate with a number of development environments. The initial release includes a bridge for Microsoft's ActiveX/COM; future releases will include bridges for Netscape's LiveConnect and IBM's OpenDoc. Since it's a "component architecture" for Java, Beans can be used in graphical programming environments, like Borland's JBuilder, or IBM's VisualAge for Java. This means that someone can use a graphical tool to connect a lot of Beans together and make an application, without actually writing any Java code -- in fact, without doing any programming at all. Graphical development environments let you configure components by specifying aspects of their visual appearance (like the color or label of a button) in addition to the interactions between components (what happens when you click on a button or select a menu item). One important aspect of Java Beans is that components don't have to be visible. This sounds like a minor distinction, but it's very important: the invisible parts of an application are the parts that do the work. So, for example, in addition to manipulating graphical widgets, like checkboxes and menus, Beans allows you to develop and manipulate components that do database access, perform computations, and so on. You can build entire applications by connecting pre-built components, without writing any code. Developing Java Beans is for people who need to stay up-to-date with the latest developments in programming technology. Minimally, developing Beans means adopting several simple design patterns in your code. However, that's only the beginning. To take full advantage of the Java Beans architecture, you should understand how to write classes that are serializable, use events for communication between classes, know when and how to provide BeanInfo classes that give graphical environments more information about your components, and provide property editors and customizers that let graphical tools work with more complex Beans. The book covers:

• Events, event listeners, and adapters
• Properties, indexed properties, bound properties, constrained properties, and vetoable property changes
• Persistence, serialization, versioning, and object validation
• Packaging Beans using JAR files
• The BeanBox, a prototypical development tool
• Reflection and introspection
• Property editors and customizers
• The ActiveX bridge; using Java Beans in Visual Basic programs

Product Description

Synopsis
Although EJB applications themselves are portable, the manner in which developers install and run EJB products varies widely from one vendor to the next. The goal of this Web Logic workbook is to discuss vendor specific requirements and best practices and introduce tools like the WebLogic Administration Console, all in the contest of building and running the example programs for O'Reilly's "Enterprise JavaBeans", 3rd edition. The Workbook guides you step-by-step, explaining how to build and deploy working solutions in a particular application server, and provides useful hints, tips and warnings.

Book Description
An invaluable tutorial on the dramatic changes to Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) 3.0


Featuring myriad changes from its previous versions, EJB 3.0 boasts a very different programming and deployment model, with nearly every aspect of development affected. Even the most experienced EBJ and J2EE developers will need to relearn how to best use EJB to develop mission-critical applications. This author team of experts has taken their combined skills in architecture, development, consulting, and knowledge transfer to explain the various changes to EJB 3.0 as well as the rationale behind these changes. You'll learn the concepts and techniques for authoring distributed, enterprise components in Java from the ground up.

Covering basic through advanced subjects, Mastering Enterprise JavaBeans 3.0 is more than 50 percent new and revised. Four new chapters and one new appendix cover the latest features of this new release, and in-depth coverage of the Java Persistence API and the entities defined therein is provided. The authors' main goal is to get you programming with EJB immediately. To that end, you'll learn:
* How to implement EJB 3.0 beans, with emphasis on session beans (stateful and stateless) and message-driven beans
* Both basic and advanced concepts (such as inheritance, relationships, and so on) of Java Persistence API defined entities
* How to develop and deploy EJB 3.0 Web services
* How to secure EJB applications
* How to integrate EJB applications with the outside world via the Java EE Connector technology
* Tips and techniques for designing and deploying EJB for better performance
* How clustering in large-scale EJB systems works
* Best practices for EJB application design, development, and testing

The companion Web site provides all the source code, updates to the source code examples, and a PDF version of the book.
