Description

The Deitels’ groundbreaking How to Program series offers unparalleled breadth and depth of object-oriented programming concepts and intermediate-level topics for further study. This survey of Java programming contains an optional extensive OOD/UML 2 case study on developing and implementing the software for an automated teller machine. The Eighth Edition of this acclaimed text is now current with the Java SE 6 updates that have occurred since the book was last published.

New To This Edition

The online Multimedia Cyber Classroom electronic learning support is fully updated. The new version includes 10+ hours of Camtasia-based VideoNotes presented by Paul Deitel, the author of Pearson’s wildly successful Java and C# LiveLessons products.

• New “Making a Difference” exercise sets encourage students to associate computers and the Internet with solving problems that really matter to individuals, communities, countries and the world.
—These new exercises encourage students to think for themselves as they explore complex social issues and increase awareness of important issues the world is facing.
—Many of the new exercises require students to conduct research on the web and weave the results into their problem-solving process.

• The optional object-oriented design/UML 2 automated teller machine (ATM) case study has been refined and reorganized into two optional chapters that present the ATM’s design and complete code implementation.

Java’s new Nimbus graphical user interface (GUI), introduced in Java SE 6 update 10, is now used throughout the book.

The popular Eclipse and Netbeans open source integrated development environments (IDEs) are covered more extensively via online support materials.

Generic collections are introduced earlier, with a stronger treatment of generics and collections.


•  Applet treatment is enhanced to include material on Java Web Start and the new applet features introduced in Java SE 6 update 10, such as applets that can be dragged from your browser to your desktop then launched from the desktop in the future.


Updated chapters on databases, web development with Java Server Faces, and Web services (now including REST) to reflect significant developments.  Enthusiastic feedback on this treatment from the professional community includes:

— “The JDBC chapter is very hands on. I like the fact that Java DB/Apache Derby is used in the examples, which makes it really simple to learn and understand JDBC.” Sandeep Konchady, Sun Microsystems
—“Equips you with the latest web application technologies. Examples are impressive and real! Want to develop a simple address locator with Ajax and JSF? Jump to Chapter 30.” Vadiraj Deshpande, Sun Microsystems
— “Covers web services with Java SE 6 and Java EE 5 in a real-life, example-based, friendly approach. The Deitel Web Services Resource Center is really good, even for advanced developers.” Sanjay Dhamankar, Sun Microsystems
—“Mandatory book for any serious Java EE developer looking for improved productivity: JSF development, visual web development and web services development have never been easier.”Ludovic Chapenois, Sun Microsystems

Significant treatment of testing and debugging includes unit testing with JUnit.

Defining occurrence page numbers for each term have been added in the terminology lists for quick reference.

• Exception handling is covered earlier in the text.

Most exercises are now titled.

Backcover Copy

"The [arrays] exercises are quite sophisticated and interesting. Provides the best combination of conceptual discussion and implementation examples of dynamic binding that I have encountered in a text. Excellent overview of basic networking via Java. Provides the perfect breadth and depth for generics in an entry-level Java class. Provides a good segue into a data structures course – the exercises are excellent." – Ric Heishman, George Mason University

"Beautiful collections of exercises–a nice illustration of how to use Java libraries to generate impressive and stimulating graphics with minimal code and effort. I found the “Making a Difference” exercises to be very nice and tactfully presented." – Amr Sabry, Indiana University

"A comprehensive introduction to programming in Java that covers all major areas of the platform. To me, the best way to understand programming is by example, and this book contains copious, well-described sample code." – Simon Ritter, Sun Microsystems

"Great example of polymorphism and interfaces. Great comparison of recursion and iteration. I found the [Searching and Sorting] chapter to be just right. A very understandable, simplified explanation of Big O–the best I have ever read! A great synthesis of details to help someone create generic data structures. I appreciate the addition of the GUI-based threading issues. Great approach to Java web technologies." – Sue McFarland Metzger, Villanova University

"I’m sure this [ATM] case study will be of immense value to practitioners and students of the object-oriented approach. Demystifies inheritance and polymorphism, and illustrates their use in getting elegant, simple and maintainable code." – Vinod Varma, Astra Infotech Private Limited
