Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From the Inside Flap
Java, in a relatively short period of time, has emerged as the de facto standard for creating applications for the Internet, and, consequently, for enterprise intranets. “Write once, run anywhere” has become a reality with Java. Java Virtual Machines (JVMs) are available for nearly every computing platform, including all IBM operating systems (from OS/2 Warp to OS/390), Microsoft Windows, Apple Macintosh, UNIX, and even new devices such as the IBM Network Station and telephony devices. Java is ideally suited to the Internet (and intranets), with compact code size, robust security features, windowing toolkits, database access capabilities, multimedia features, and more. For the enterprise, in-house Java applications can be more easily and quickly distributed, even to customers outside the enterprise who might need selective access to information. Furthermore, because Java is platform neutral, both in-house and public versions of Java applications reach the widest possible audience, now and in the future.
While Java itself is a highly object-oriented language, until recently there was no standard technology to help programmers build Java components which interact with one another in common ways. Consequently, “beans” were born. JavaBeans can be created, reused, modified and assembled into feature-rich applications. This book focuses on the benefits of JavaBeans and how to take advantage of them, particularly in the enterprise.
Introduction
Understand what JavaBeans are, how they are built and how they can be used and reused. Although the focus is on JavaBeans, special attention is paid to the enterprise environment. For anyone trying to build applications for the enterprise environment, topics such as distributed objects and accessing legacy databases become important. JavaBeans provide an interesting solution to many of the issues which arise in the enterprise environment. They provide a means of packaging functionality into reusable units which can then be spread throughout the enterprise. In addition, beans are designed to be able to be manipulated visually using a visual builder tool.

JavaBeans by example emphasizes Java development w/VisualAge,
By A Customer
This review is from: JavaBeans by Example with CDROM (Paperback)
This book covers virtually all aspects of the Javabeans API. It gives very well developed examples for the building blocks of the Javabeans API such as events, properties, introspection, property editors and more. The book also discusses internationalization, distribution and RMI, persistency, security, and printing. Integrated development environments are discussed. As the book is a joint venture between Prentice-Hall and IBM, special attention is given to IBM's VisualAge for Java IDE. An entry level version of VisualAge for Java is included on a CD that accompanies this text. (Note that this version is freely available from IBM's website -- you don't have to purchase the book to download it). Notably missing from the CD included with this book are interchange files for use in VisualAge for Java which the authors could have used to record Visual builder information they develop in the course of the text. However, the wealth of information given in the book and CD is very useful, and will be of singular interest to VisualAge for Java users. Others will find it an interesting and useful source of information. It makes an excellent companion for another title -- Developing Java Beans -- by Oreilly publishing.
