TCP IP Sockets in Java Practical Guide for Progra
The following report compares books using the SERCount Rating (base on the result count from the search engine).
Rating: 4/5 from 5 reviews Does not cover java 1.4 (NIO)The Right Book To BuyI very much agree with the other reviews on this site. This book hits the meat of using TCP/IP with Java. Some prerequisites for this book are the following topics. I recommend that you get a single book for each topic. * Basic Java Programming including I/O and Threads You will need additional books if you want to hit topics such as these: Java's application-level networking API's, Servlets, JSP, RMI, CORBA. I also recommend this book because it lists references to 22 such supplemental books/documents. To the Point .. Easy to FollowTCP/IP Sockets in Java is a great way for any Java programmer to get started. The code examples are numerous yet thorough and clear. This book should be enough information to get any Java programmer started with the sockets API. There are a few things that this book is not. Its not a complete reference of the sockets API. Its not a thorough reference of TCP/IP. Finally, this book is not for people who are new to Java. Overall a great book if you want to get started with TCP/IP in Java. | ||||||||||||||||||
However, it does not cover using the NIO (java 1.4) networking API which is much faster and more efficient. So this book is very useful if you are still having to write for java 1.3.
But if you are writing for java 1.4 (or 1.5), then it is of almost no value.
