    Summary note
    "Through a task-oriented, example-driven approach, The Java Tutorial introduces you to fundamental concepts and applications. Designed so that you can customize your own path through the specific information you need, the book explains the nuts and bolts of the language, applet construction, and the fundamental Java classes. You will also learn about more advanced topics such as creating a graphical user interface (GUI), using multiple threads, and working with Java's networking capabilities." "This Second Edition has been extensively updated to cover API changes in Java 1.1 regarding UI, networking, and I/O, and to include the latest Java language developments. New and updated material includes receiving broadcasts using a multicast socket, new I/O features, including character streams and object serialization, the latest development in applet tags, using the 1.1 AWT event system, new language features, such as nested classes, tips for writing 100% Pure Java programs, and updating 1.0 programs to use the 1.1 API." "The accompanying CD-ROM contains the Tutorial and all its code samples, versions of the Java Development Kit (JDK) and the JDK documentation for each major platform, and the HotJava" Browser. On the CD, the HTML version of the book is browser-friendly and contains information not found in the printed text, such as draft lessons on internationalizing Java programs, calling non-Java libraries from Java programs, using the security API, developing JavaBeans" components, and using the GUI components in the Swing/JFC package."--BOOK JACKET.
