- Java Language Specification: Third Edition (PDF) The book provides complete, accurate, and detailed coverage of the Java programming language. It provides full coverage of all new features added in since the previous edition including generics, annotations, asserts, autoboxing, enums, for each loops, variable arity methods and static import clauses. Downloads to Edition One and Two also available.
- Java Native Interface: Programmer's Guide and Specification: The (JNI) enables integration of Java code with that written in other languages like C and C++. Programmers can take full advantage of the Java platform without having to abandon any previous investment in code. This book is a comprehensive guide to working with the Java Native Interface. Included are a tutorial, a detailed description of JNI features and programming techniques, JNI design justifications, and the official specification for all JNI types and functions. Important topics like Writing Native Methods, Pass Data Types between Java and Native Programming Languages, Embedding JVM Implementation in Native Applications and Leveraging Legacy Native Libraries are covered.

- Advanced Programming for the Java 2 Platform - As an experienced developer on the Java platform, you undoubtedly know how fast moving and comprehensive the platform is. Its many application programming interfaces (APIs) provide a wealth of functionality for all aspects of application and system-level programming. Real-world developers never use one or two APIs to solve a problem, but bring together key functionality spanning a number of APIs. Knowing which APIs you need, which parts of which APIs you need, and how the APIs work together to create the best solution can be a daunting task. To help you navigate the Java APIs and fast-track your project development time, this book includes the design, development, test, and deployment phases for an enterprise-worthy auction application. While the example application does not cover every possible programming scenario, it explores many common situations and the discussions leave you with a solid methodology for designing and building your own solutions. This book is for developers with more than a beginning level of understanding of writing programs in the Java programming language.
- A Java GUI Programmer's Primer - This book contains an introduction to the systematic development of Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs) using the Java environment. It does not attempt to introduce the Java language and it is assumed that the reader has some familiarity with Object Oriented Development (OOD) and its practical expression in Java. Suitable resources to assist with obtaining this knowledge are given in Appendix A. However, a brief explanation of some aspects of Java will be presented where appropriate, particularly where the aspect differs significantly from C++.
- Java Thin-Client Programming - This redbook focuses primarily on topics such as threading, from a Java thin client programming perspective. Also, because these applications are in a multi-user environment, security issues will be covered. The use of CORBA on the network-computing environment is also introduced. Java programming issues, such as object recycling and serialization, are necessary topics to consider when dealing with client/server applications. When an application is developed under the object-oriented paradigm, an introduction to simple concepts of model/view programming techniques will help the reader. Last, but not least, the basics techniques and tools required for profile applications are presented.
- Java Thin-Client Programming for a Network Computing Environment - IBM RedBook published in 1998, so not the latest stuff
- Introduction to Programming Using Java - This text has more than enough material for a one-semester course, and it also suitable for individuals who want to learn programming on their own. This is the third edition of the text. It covers more material and has more examples than the second edition. It also adds end-of-chapter quizzes and solved programming exercises. Previous editions have been used in a course, Computer Science 124: Introductory Programming, at Hobart and William Smith Colleges.
- Mastering Enterprise Java Beans Second Edition - The bestselling book about "the best thing since the Java language itself" is now completely revised and updated! Renowned authorities on Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB), Ed Roman and his team deliver an indispensable developer's perspective on what is fast becoming the dominant technology for building server-side applications. This Second Edition covers not only the latest features of the major new release of the EJB specification, EJB 2.0, but also expands coverage to include more advanced programming tips and techniques and topics of interest to enterprise developers. Readers will learn everything they need to jumpstart their EJB development, from the basics of EJB architecture to developing transactional, scalable, and secure multiuser enterprise applications.
- Java Data Objects - The book is suitable for readers who already know the Java programming language, and wish to learn how to use JDO. No prior experience of JDBC, SQL, J2EE or XML is required. The focus throughout is on using JDO as the persistence layer in an application. A succinct introduction to J2EE is given before the finer details of JDO Integration with J2EE is explained. Naturally, readers with a strong J2EE background will be better placed to position JDO in their distributed architectures than those without.
- Jakarta Struts Live - Jakarta Struts Live contains thorough coverage of both the Struts MVC architecture and building each of the Struts components of this architecture. You'll learn to use vital features like Tiles, the Validator, DynaActionForms, plug-ins, and internationalization. You also look at how you can leverage other open-source technologies to improve your Struts development process and experiences.
- J2EE and XML Development - J2EE and XML are important technologies in their own right, but applications that use them together benefit from their synergy. Java and J2EE make a powerful platform for building robust application logic. XML facilitates flexible data storage and manipulation. Developers who properly use XML with J2EE develop the most powerful enterprise systems that can be built today.
- EJB Design Patterns - The job of the EJB developer is constantly challenging, making the task of designing maintainable and scalable systems difficult without a clear set of best practices to follow. It is with this and other concerns in mind that Floyd Marinescu (Director of TheServerSide.com J2EE Community) worked with thousands of J2EE professionals on TheServerSide to put their collective knowledge together in order to build a library of design patterns, strategies, and best practices for EJB design and development.
- Data Structures and Algorithms With Object-Oriented Design Patterns in Java - This book is about the fundamentals of data structures and algorithms--the basic elements from which large and complex software artifacts are built. To develop a solid understanding of a data structure requires three things: First, you must learn how the information is arranged in the memory of the computer. Second, you must become familiar with the algorithms for manipulating the information contained in the data structure. And third, you must understand the performance characteristics of the data structure so that when called upon to select a suitable data structure for a particular application, you are able to make an appropriate decision.
- Securing Java - We hope this book appeals to geeks and grandmothers alike (not that some grandmothers aren't geeks). Although it gets technical in places, we hope the messages are clear enough that even the casual Web user comes away with a broader understanding of the security issues surrounding mobile code. We kept four groups in mind as we wrote this book: Web users, developers, system administrators, and business decision-makers. Many of the issues of mobile code security cut across these groups. As Java integrates itself into the foundations of electronic commerce, Java security issues take on more urgency.
- JXTA - This book presents a guided tour of the JXTA platform, including all of the critical information required to begin producing P2P solutions built on top of JXTA. Reference information on each of the JXTA protocols provides an understanding of the underlying principles of P2P networking, and examples built on the JXTA reference implementation provide the hands-on experience necessary to become fluent in JXTA technology.
