Files missing from CD-ROM,
By A Customer
This review is from: Java 2 Developer's Handbook (Hardcover)
I bought this book when I was a beginner and read it rather quickly. Today I started work on a telnet client and remembered the book describing the use of telnet URLConnection. Cool, so I loaded the CD-ROM and to my disappointment no protocol handlers (the telnet handler or one for the other example) were included at all. I e-mailed their support person but after a few exchanges it became clear he didn't have a clue.

Good for intermediate JAVA programmer, bad for any other....,
By A Customer
This review is from: Java 2 Developer's Handbook (Hardcover)
I found this a good reference on networking, I/O, RMI, and some threading.... but then again, I had some previous knowledge on each of those topics. Non-the-less, if you would like more information on those topics, I recommend it. Besides those topics, this book doesn't tell you anything useful. Just scratches a surface on Swing...Remember that if you're a beginner or an advanced JAVA programmer, then this book will be completely useless. Trust me! For the amount of money, there're lots of better books around. In fact, you'll find the Official JAVA tutorial on java.sun.com much much better.... and it's free.

Not "updated for 1.2 as the promo claims",
By A Customer
This review is from: Java 2 Developer's Handbook (Hardcover)
Authors and editors spent very little time updating is book to Java 2. Its too bad Sybex places such little value on the quality of their books. Sybex is no O'Reilly. Really wish I had not wasted my money on this book.
