  In Thinking in Java, Third Edition, Bruce Eckel revises his widely-praised Java introduction to fully reflect the power of Java 2 Standard Edition, Version 1.4. This new edition of the book that won the 1999 Software Development Magazine Productivity Award adds thoroughly updated coverage of servlets, JSP, and EJB. As always, Eckel doesn't just show students what to do, but why. He introduces all the basics of objects as Java uses them; then walks carefully through the fundamentals of Java programming, including program flow, initialization and cleanup, implementation hiding, reusing classes and polymorphism. Using to-the-point examples, he introduces exception handling, Java I/O, run-time type identification, and passing and returning objects. Coverage also includes: database integration, transactions, security, Swing GUI development, Jini, JavaSpaces, and much more. Eckel presents Java one simple step at a time, carefully organizing his material so students can learn Preface. Preface to the 3rd edition. Java 2, JDK 1.4. Introduction. Prerequisites. Learning Java. Goals. JDK HTML documentation. Chapters. Exercises. The CD ROM. Source code. Java versions. Errors. Note on the cover design. Acknowledgements. 1. Introduction to Objects. The progress of abstraction. An object has an interface. An object provides services. The hidden implementation. Reusing the implementation. Inheritance: reusing the interface. Interchangeable objects with polymorphism. Object creation, use & lifetimes. Exception handling: dealing with errors. Concurrency. Persistence. Java and the Internet. Why Java succeeds. Java vs. C++? Summary. 2. Everything is an Object. You manipulate objects with references. You must create all the objects. You never need to destroy an object. Creating new data types: class. Methods, arguments, and return values. Building a Java program. Your first Java program. Comments and embedded documentation. Coding style. Summary. Exercises. 3. Controlling Program Flow. Using Java operators. Execution control. Summary. Exercises. 4. Initialization & Cleanup. Guaranteed initialization with the constructor. Method overloading.
