4.0 out of 5 stars Good introduction to Visual J++ but not Java, March 19, 1998

This review is from: Visual J++ for Dummies (Paperback)

The book goes a long way in describing the Microsoft Visual environment. (It's nice to see the same environment as used for C++). Unfortunately viewing the online (humorous) descriptions of the contents page makes it impossible to evaluate the true contents of the book without actually reading it. This is not the book you want to learn Java the language. You want this book to learn how to implement Java in the Visual J++ environment.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not for beginners, April 21, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Visual J++ for Dummies (Paperback)

Its title is misleading, making us believe that it actually was written for dummies. But it's not. The author has to rewrite this book for true beginners who want to learn J++ programming in a clear and concise way.

3.0 out of 5 stars Easy, but confused, March 15, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Visual J++ for Dummies (Paperback)

It was my first book for Visual J++. I have found some explanations made me understand easily. However, it is very confused for me to follow the examples in the book. And, I really don't like that he used a lot of joke in main and sub titles. I would believe that these titles supposed to have concentrated and abstracted meaning for the chapters. This is good for only brief view for Visula J++, actually Java.
