Description
Summary:Sebastopol, CA - Java network programming has come a long way, and "Java Network Programming, Third Edition" (O'Reilly, US $39.95) by Elliotte Rusty Harold is keeping pace with all the changes. In this fully revised and expanded edition, Harold delivers what readers will find to be an "even stronger, longer-lived, more accurate, and more enjoyable tutorial and reference to network programming in Java than the last edition." And, he promises, "when you finish this book, you'll have the knowledge and the tools to create the next generation of software that takes full advantage of the Internet." Covering Java 5.0, the new edition of "Java Network Programming" brings readers up to date with the latest features of Java's network APIs. It discusses the changes and additions to networking in JDK 1.4 and 1.5 (now christened J2SE 5) and covers everything from networking fundamentals to Remote Method Invocation (RMI), including chapters on TCP and UDP sockets, server sockets, URLs and URIs, multicasting, and special-purpose APIs such as JavaMail. This book explains how to use J2SE to write secure networking applications and how to use the NIO APIs to write ultra high-performance servers. It also covers Java's support for network proxies, web cookies, and URL caching. "I didn't begin to understand Java networking until I found this book," says Bruce Eckel, author of "Thinking in Java." As did the previous editions, "Java Network Programming, Third Edition" will prove essential for network developers and Java programmers who want to write sophisticated network applications.
