The Java Class Libraries: An Annotated Reference

 

by Patrick Chan and Rosanna Lee
The Java Class Libraries: An Annotated Reference by Patrick Chan and Rosanna Lee, is the indispensable annotated reference to the Java 1.0.2 APIs, the set of class libraries that control basic functions for Java application development.

This book features an overview of the packages and their associated classes, diagrams illustrating inheritance hierarchies, and carefully chosen examples demonstrating the typical application of each class and member. The book offers over 600 examples in over 20,000 lines of code. The structure of the book is specially designed for quick look-up of the classes and members you're searching for.

Patrick Chan was one of the principal members of the original Java team. He played a central role in shaping the Java libraries as they exist today. Rosanna Lee has been working in the area of networking and distributed systems for over a decade.

From years of first-hand experience, they know what information you need to develop serious Java applications and they have provided it here. In this 1600 page book you'll find details not available in any other annotated Java API reference.
