Java Training Book for CAD API

I am a CAD Design Engineer, and my CAD system (Pro/E) uses a Java application called J-Link for accessing the CAD system's API, apparently because this CAD system originated on the UNIX platform, although we use it on Windows. The Windows-based CAD systems I have used in the past used VBA for this purpose, with which I have a reasonable amount of training. I now need to gear up on Java to program for Pro/E. I could use some help in locating a book that would cover my needs. Most of what I've seen so far is considerable overkill, and does not deal with accessing an application's API through Java.
I had the unfortunate past experience of naively taking two VB courses, thinking this would cover any possible topic in VBA (which I mistakenly thought was basically a VB-lite) only to find that it didn't, and I eventually found a good book on VBA that covered my needs. Nevertheless, I wasted a lot of time learning a lot of stuff which was not pertinent. I would like to avoid this with Java for J-Link.

That CAD API doesn't sound like Sun code. (If it is, I'm not aware of it.)
J-Link sounds proprietary to ProE. I'd be shocked if there were books available on it. You should look into documentation from Parametric Technologies.
VB is NOT Java, that's for sure. If you don't know Java already, start with the Sun tutorial before you try to tackle this ProE API.

Java compile error for removed API

Hi,
What are the Java compile errors for API that has been removed?
As I understand it, API elements are deprecated and not removed from the API immediately, but will be removed in future releases or after so many years.
When Java code is compliled in a higher Java version, and the API has finally been removed - what are the errors that will be ouput in the log?
Thank you for your time.

And if you recompile one with a method removed that the other use and then run the other you would get a NoSuchMethodError (or more generally just an error sub class of LinkageError).
Not that you should be catching those unless you accept classes from the user (as plugins).Presumably you mean he should not be catching them?
@OP: In general, you should not catch unchecked exceptions. These are RuntimeException, Error, and their descendants. There are exceptions, such as at "layer boundaries," or when you don't want errors in one module/application/plugin/etc. to affect or prevent processing in others.

Best training book for iWeb

Go to do a new website for first time in 15 years. Did last one in straight HTML. Used a "Learn HTML in 7 Days" book. Hopefully iWeb will make this second foray easier.
Any recommendations for good books for teaching iWeb (beyond the basics). I want to get past just posting pictures and movies. I want to be able to have pages where I post downloadable Word docs etc.
Also if I do basics in iWeb can I then take that code an modify / enhance in another web design program.
Thanks,
Alan

The vast majority of 'code'/features you'd use completely differently in another program or with another system. It's not really transferable knowledge, though you might pick up a couple of things. But if you've already learned HTML I'm sure you'll have no problems.
Posting downloadable Word docs is very simple. In fact, everything in iWeb is pretty simple providing it has the functionality available. (That said, allowing someone to download a Word doc in straight HTML is also very simple - just upload it to your server and create a hyperlink for visitors to download your doc).
Don't waste money on a book for web design. Ever. Everything you could possibly need is available on the Internet for free in an easier format, often with the ability to ask questions, and constantly being updated. Any book you buy will be at least a year behind.

Looking for recommendations on training books for PS CS3

I'm not complete newbie to Photoshop, but I know there is so much more I could get out of it.... so I'm looking for a good tutorial book. One that isn't going to cost me an arm & a leg.
Thanks!

Michael,
No book will have solutions to all problems. Even the Web will come up short sometimes. That's what this forum is about.
I'd start with the manual, then spend some time with the Help files (F1). Yeah, the manual doesn't read like Faulkner, but it's not bad and has the solution to many, many problems. It does rely too heavily, nowadays, on "(see Help files)," but ink and paper have gotten more expensive.
Next, as someone else suggested, "Classroom in a Book," and work through it all, even the stuff you think you'll never need. You will pick up other knowledge, as you do those exercises.
At that point, decide what you want to do with Photoshop. That will narrow your book/training down to specific areas, like "Photoshop for Photographers," "Photoshop for Video," etc.
If you hit a problem, that you cannot solve with the manual, F1, "CiaB," Google and a search of this forum, please post your specific question.

AE CS6 training books

Hi folks,
I searched the forums for advice on training books for the CS6 products, but all the threads are a year old, so I'm hoping to revisit the topic of training books for the Production Premium CS6 software (mainly AE, Premiere, and Photoshop).
I see from Amazon that there are Adobe Classroom in a Book copies already for CS6, but frankly, they're exact reprints of the the CS5 books I already have, same example files, exercises, chapters, etc. Very few new topics exist.
I have to be honest that I'm 1/3 through After Effects CS5 CinaB, and I don't love it. All the files are standard def ( ! ), and they don't seem to be practical from a design standpoint at all. Many of them feel incredibly dated and not something I would use in a practical design.
Can anyone recommend a good tutorial book that approaches learning AE, etc from a designer's perspective? I should indicate that I am not a beginning with any of these tools, but I'm not advanced either. I'm looking for really solid, practical, industry-used techinques to take my production to the next level. Things like how 3D tools in Photoshop work, how the new 3D tools (ie Ray Traced 3D) works in AE, advanced compositing techniques, troubleshooting footage techniques, advanced effects work, etc.
Any help/recommendations is greatly appreciated!

Mark Christiansen's "Studio Techniques" would be the relevant "industry bible". Otehrwise these days you can find tons of tutorials on the web for everything, but naturalyl the quality will be mixed. Some are good, some not so much. Until you get to a specific point in your workflows, though, most of them will not be particularly relevant either way. Perhaps video2brain's series featuring Todd Kopriva & Angie Taylor might be a good place to start, but I can't vouch for any of that - I haven't watched a tutorial in eons. I simply don't have the time.

Best Aperture Training Book

Hi,
I need a training book for Aperture 2.0. At Amazon, I could only find Pro Training Series by Peachpit Press. The reviews have been somewhat mediocre. Do you have any other recommendations?
Thanks

I did not miss any points at all. The book stinks as a reference manual and a tutorial. It is better than nothing but that's about it. I have read all of your posts and others regarding the book and have noticed the emphasis of using it as a tutorial. After seeing so many wonderful comments on it and "strongly recommend" type things I just had to be the odd man out.
I can assure you that I am intimately familiar with the book as a book and as a tutorial. A more appropriate should be how to take 900 hours to walk through inane things that you could learn yourself in 90 minutes of trial and error or something like that. The sad fact is that there are no better materials for Aperture at this point. The really insane part about this and the Lightroom situation is that the tools are workflow tools and far too much emphasis is placed on adjustments, adjustments, adjustments.

Good Book For Java Card

Just remember that this book is for JC 2.1 not 2.2.1. I have still found this book good for explaining the fundamentals of Java Card development. It just doesn't cover all of the JC 2.2.x API's.

Recommend good books for learning java?

im using Java How to Program, Deitel&deitel.
i find it all right.
what do u think about this one?
can u recommend any other?
Natasha

There's a lot of online reference available, too:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jls/second_edition/html/j.title.doc.html
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.1/docs/api/index.html
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/index.html
There's links to all the online documentation, as well as to a few recommended books that you can buy, at:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.1/docs/index.html
As for specific book, sorry I can't help you. I personally learned a lot more Java by browsing through the API reference than I did by checking out coding examples. But that might only be because I already had a decent background in programming when I started. If you start Java as your first programming language, then an example and explanation filled book would be really useful. Like I said, sorry about not being able to provide any solid recommendations.
Hope that helps though. Check out those links, they are pretty useful. The tutorial is pretty helpful sometimes, too.

Simple Java Example for DI API

Hello,
I have a Java Application and would like to connect to a SAP BO Database using JCO and DI API.
I want a simple java example that just connects to the BO Database and returns an item name or value or a recordset from the database.
Since i dont have the names of what kind of fields, items , tables exist in the SAP BO Demo database i need a basic example to make sure that i can connect to the database and retrieve data from the DB.
Any help in this regard would be appreciated...
Amit

Dear Amit Hingher,
The B1 JCO is a java wrapper for DI API so basically you could refer to DI help for all objects, methods and properties.
Here the jave sample for connection function:
package test;
import com.sap.smb.sbo.api.*;
public class ConnectSAP {
     // company interface
     public ICompany company;
     private SBOErrorMessage errMsg = null;
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          ConnectSAP company = new ConnectSAP();
          company.conn();
     //method make connection andinitialize company instance
     public int conn() {
          int rc = 0;
          try {
               company = SBOCOMUtil.newCompany();
               company.setServer("(local)");
               company.setCompanyDB("test");
               company.setUserName("manager");
               company.setPassword("manager");
               company.setDbServerType(...);
               company.setUseTrusted(new Boolean(false));
               company.setLanguage(SBOCOMConstants.BoSuppLangs_ln_English);
               company.setDbUserName("Sa");
               company.setDbPassword("123");
               company.setAddonIdentifier("...");
               company.setLicenseServer("...");
               rc = company.connect();
               if (rc == 0) {
                    System.out.println("Connected!");
               } else {
                    errMsg = company.getLastError();
                    System.out.println(
                         "I cannot connect to database server: "
                              + errMsg.getErrorMessage()
                              + " "
                              + errMsg.getErrorCode());
          } catch (Exception e) {
               e.printStackTrace();
               return -1;
          return rc;
     public void freeConnection(){
