Summary

Completely updated to cover the latest Java JVM (1.6), Java for COBOL Programmers, Third Edition uses COBOL examples to teach object-oriented principles and Java Syntax. Written for COBOL programmers transitioning to JAVA, the step-by-step examples show users how to convert COBOLas structured programming into object-oriented concepts without assuming knowledge of C or C++. Basic object-oriented and Java technology, such as objects, inheritance, and program language syntax are introduced, and are compared to their Cobol equivalents. A new chapter introduces the new standard open source Integrated Development Environment (Eclipse) used by most Java developers.
