Should be called 'Developing for Sybase EAServer',
By A Customer
This review is from: PowerBuilder 9: Internet and Distributed Application Development (Paperback)
Full book is devoted to Sybase EAServer. In some chapters you can learn something about PowerBuilder with EAServer. I was expecting more about JSP and Web Targets. Buy it **only** if you are planning to use Sybase EAServer.

This review is from: PowerBuilder 9: Internet and Distributed Application Development (Paperback)
I am almost 10 Years with Powerbuilder. I thought this book will show me step by step EA Server and Internet Development, as the Cover Page named after. But this book completely disappointed me. Lots of contents without generating any interest to read the next page, even the next line....Wish there be a good book on Powerbuilder 9 and Internet Development! This book is not really showing how to start up and go step by step building internet applications. I am waiting for a good book on PB 9 in the market.

This review is from: PowerBuilder 9: Internet and Distributed Application Development (Paperback)
For newbiew like me, this is the bible for entering the n-tier world with EAServer. Gives me a very good comparison with other options too.After having bought this book for my work, I have found my colleagues who take this book for reference often appreciating it's contents, especially for the tips & tricks and well laid out examples. I recommend all the PowerBuilder/Internet developers to invest in this book. Very affordable with good quality.
