Best books available?

Can anybody give advice on a good book that covers Servlets from the basics to the most detailed features? I want one that covers the latest Java EE 5 features.

You can start with Core Servlets and jsp, than move on to more servlets & Jsp.
although these books do not cover very recent versions of the Servlet API but i found these very helpful when i started learning Servlets

  • What's the best java book available?

    Anyone knows any good, detail java book available out there for
    beginer/intermediate level programmer? Greatly appreciated.

    hi,
    i would recommend Beginning Java 2 - SDK 1.4 Version, it's a good book for people starting off and moving to interm., the author covers the basics and more advanced topics later such as JDBC, working with XML and Java and Printing all in one book. Also half way through the book, once he starts talking about building GUI, he builds a small application, then for the next few chapters what ever is taught is also built into the app, the app he shows you how to build is something like ms paint. so he shows you not only how to write small programs but also building an application, i don't remember the size of it but i believe it was a few thousand lines long. he also builds a second app, smaller for working with databases later. the only problem is the size of the book and price, but if you have the time to read it, i'd recommend that one.

    To quote the tagline on their homepage: "a friendly place for Java greenhorns." FAQs, forums (moderated, I believe), sample code, all kinds of goodies for newbies. From what I've heard, they live up to the "friendly" claim.

  • What is the best books for MCSA 2012

    pleas can you advice me what are the best books and materials for pass MCSA 2012?
    thank you.

    Hi, HFAA.
    I understand you want to earn the MCSA title for something with a version number of
    2012.
    There are six (6) different MCSA certification titles currently available. Two of them are version 2012, which are Windows Server 2012 and SQL Server 2012. Here is the web page that describes all six (6) MCSA titles:
    http://www.microsoft.com/learning/en-us/mcsa-certification.aspx
    I am going to assume that you are interested in the most popular MCSA 2012 title:
    MCSA: Windows Server 2012.
    The MCSA: Windows Server 2012 description web page is located here:
    http://www.microsoft.com/learning/en-us/mcsa-windows-server-certification.aspx
    Exams
    You need to pass three (3) required exams to earn this title. If you click each of the links below, you will find the exams' descriptions with a
    Skills measured section describing what is on each exam. As well, you will see a Preparation options section full of study resources for each exam. 
    70-410 Installing and Configuring Windows Server 2012
    70-411 Administering Windows Server 2012
    70-412 Configuring Advanced Windows Server 2012 Services
    Preparation Materials
    Unfortunately, Microsoft has recently updated the content for these three (3) exams for
    Windows Server 2012 R2. These new exams will officially be released on January 28th, 2014 (nine (9) days away). Because of that, all of the previously released study materials (books, exams, etc.) for 70-410, 70-411, and 70-412
    will only be partially helpful in getting you ready for the exams.
    However, Microsoft Press and O'Reilly Media are currently updating their books to include the new
    R2 content and will be releasing them in February, March, and April of this year. The previous releases of their books seem to get the best reviews on Amazon for helping students prepare. Here are the books, with links on Amazon and
    O'Reilly. As time goes by, books from other publishers will also be released.
    Amazon:
    http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=%22Windows%20server%202012%20r2%22%20exam
    O'Reilly Media:
    http://search.oreilly.com/?q=%22Server+2012+R2%22+exam&x=9&y=15
    By the way, I tend to believe the O'Reilly's release dates are more accurate since they are the folks who are actually releasing the books!
    WARNING: As of today (01/19/2014), I don't believe any of the three legitimate Practice Test Providers (Transcender, SelfTest, and MeasureUp) have updated their practice exams for Windows Server 2012 R2 - yet. If I am wrong, I hope someone
    will correct me.
    Focus all your studies on Windows Server 2012 R2 and should be ready to take on an exam. Always prepare for one exam at a time and then take it.
    Also, make sure you take advantage of Microsoft's free Second Shot voucher program, which allows you to retake an exam for free in case you fail it the first time. This program will retire in May.
    http://www.microsoft.com/learning/en-us/second-shot.aspx
    Good luck!
    Best wishes, Davin Mickelson

  • ? best book for understanding & modifying "Web Part Page" constructs and syntax i.e. WebPartPages:XsltListViewWebPart

    Hello can anyone recommend an in depth "hands on" book or paper for understanding & modifying "Web Part Page" constructs and syntax elements i.e. <WebPartPages:XsltListViewWebPart
    <WebPartPages:XsltListViewWebPart runat="server" AllowHide="True" PartImageSmall="" PartOrder="4" Title="Time" ManualRefresh="False" ViewGuid="{7C672E08-B5D5-435D-A8FE-AB84E97099B1}" 
    So far i've bought every Sharepoint Developer 2007/2010 book available, but none seem to really cover the layout and structure of the XSL methods in enough detail!
    Thanks for any recommendations, links or white paper references ect!

    Hi,
    XsltListViewWebPart is a class that handles view rendering for default lists, such as document libraries and announcements, and it is inherited from Microsoft.SharePoint.WebPartPages namespace.
    Please check the link below for understanding the elements used in the XsltListViewWebPart class:

  • Is this the best book in town?

    Hi all,
    We need to purchase a book (intermediate to advanced) so can expand our knowledge of java on the following topics:
    * handling errors with exceptions;
    * multi-thread;
    * java socket communication;
    * Queues;
    * I/O streams
    We've been told that "The Java Programming Language" by Arnold, Gosling and Holmes 3rd edition is the best book in town.
    Any comments, suggestions, etc.
    Thanks in advance.
    Cheers
    Trajano

    The Java Programming Language, 3rd ed is basically the manual for java; every developer ought to have a copy.
    However it's not really a tutorial. It's more of a reference. If you want tutorials or commentary or the like, you might be better off with Effective Java by Bloch. Or one or more of various books dealing with these particular subject areas.

  • Best book for designing and architecting a java application?

    Hi,
    Please recommend the best book(s) in the market or on line tutorials which would help me architect and design a java application using SWING.
    I have used most of the swing components in many small GUI apps I have developed [JTable, JTree, etc, etc ....] and do not need a beginners books [online tutorials at sun site are good for that]. A book tackling advance topics, which may not concentrate on coding but has very good cases to understand the design [both class level and usuablity] and architecture of the application.
    I need to develop an editor for a GUI based language + a code genertor + mapper application [which will run as a application and may use webstart to run from a browser.]
    THANKS !

    I like "Pure JFC Swing" it's got a well written example for each and every Swing component. When I was learning to use swing each component I came across I could easily look at the example for that component and incorporate it into code for my app. That combined with the Javadoc was all I've ever needed.
