Summary

The Java Cookbook is a comprehensive collection of problems, solutions, and practical examples for anyone programming in Java. In this major revision, developers will find hundreds of tried-and-true Java "recipes" covering all of the major APIs from the 1.4 version of Java. The book also offers significant "first look" recipes for the most important features of the new 1.5 version, which is in beta release. It also includes expanded Mac OS X Panther coverage, and serves as a great "jumping-off place" for Java developers who want to get started in areas outside of their specialization.
