Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good resource for those who want to get a feel for what's out there
Java and Linux have come a long way since their respective introductions. Java is a serious contender as a platform for application development on the web, while Linux is widely regarded as an excellent platform for developing applications. For those who haven't kept current with Java development since the heady days of applet development, the myriad of Java technologies can look like a morass of car parts, musical genres, and acronyms. Java Application Development on Linux helps make ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Java Getting Platform Specific
Yes, another Java book. And this time it is specifically about developing applications on Java to run on Linux.

What, Java is supposedly write once - run many so that it will work on just about any platform.

OK, when you are developing something it often turns out that you do something specific that makes it rather tied to a particular platform. And if you are starting out on the development of a business application today, you're likely to at least think about doing it ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Extremely readable, very informative, and deep without being
Java was developed to be a cross-platform language. "Write Once, Run Anywhere" is the slogan, and an admirable ideal to attempt to reach.

The authors, Carl Albing and Michael Schwarz, chose to create a book that is a complete guide to writing commercial ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - From Java newbie to Java developer in 567 pages
When first embarking on a new journey into a programming language, the average traveler might want a map and a compass to show them where they are, where they're going and how to get there. If where you are is Java newbie and where you want to be is programming Java apps on the Linux platform, then _Java Application Development on Linux_ is a map and compass you can use to get from here to there.

This book is another in a long line of great technical reference books from Prentice Hall's Bruce ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good overview of Java development under Linux
Hi.
This book covers many aspects of Java development under Linux without losing the reader in the details. To achieve that, the authors gave many references throughout the book in order to direct the reader to more in depth coverage of the subject.
My only disappointment is not to find the hyperlink to the book's web site in introduction. Moreover, the site (www.javalinuxbook.com) does not contain much information to complement the book. For example, it would be great to find the list of ... Read More
