hi i have been preparing for scjp2 for past month. now friends say i shud better give the new test for java 1.4 is the prep same for both. help neone sabby
The prep is not identical. There are many objectives that are the same, but AWT and IO were dropped from the 1.4 platform exam. Assertions, hashCodes, and Wrapper Objects were added objectives to the 1.4 exam. Which is better? I'd say take the 1.4 platform exam if you don't have alot of time invested in the 1.2 platform exam. If you do have significant time invested already - don't sweat it, take the Java 1.2 platform exam. Sun did this once before when they migrated the JDK 1.1 programmer exam to the Java 2 programmer exam. Both exams were offered in parallel for about 9 months before the 1.1 exam was not offered anymore. They gave about 4 months notice on the actual elimination of the older exam - they did not leave people hanging. ---------------------------- Considering the Certified Java Programmer Exam?

I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to
