1.0 out of 5 stars Warning - author/publisher selling same book twice!, March 14, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: DCOM Networking With Visual J++ 6.0 (Paperback)

This book is the virtually identical to "Corba Networking With Java" from the same author and publisher. Both books are content-free and contain only vague discussions of general resource/development planning issues that have nothing to do with Java or DCOM.

2.0 out of 5 stars The title is VERY misleading, January 19, 1999

By 

Peter Thanisch [e-mail] (Edinburgh, Scotland) - See all my reviews

This review is from: DCOM Networking With Visual J++ 6.0 (Paperback)

The entire text contains just six lines of Visual J++ (on page 69). One of the appendices also contains half a page of Java (on page 306). Neither example is of any value.

The book only discribes DCOM in very general terms. You will not learn how to use DCOM from reading this book!

Amazon described the book as "hand's on". This is clearly a false assertion. It is a book for technical managers and is distcinctly hands-off.

1.0 out of 5 stars Vapid description of DCOM with no J++ or even Java content, January 14, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: DCOM Networking With Visual J++ 6.0 (Paperback)

I was singularly impressed by this book's inability to convey any information about the two subjects in its title, DCOM and J++. Instead, it jabbers superfluously about cost budgeting of software projects and how to do business over the internet.

The worst investment I've made in a technical book.
