Heard people saying the "SCJD j2se 5" is outdated and also the book "SCJD book by Andrew Monkhouse" is for J2SE 5 version of SCJD?
Please correct me,If I'm going wrong.
and, if yes?
is the book you prescribed is enough for preparing for SCJD ?
If not, What is the book, you suggest for it??
Ok. Lets get the facts straight.
1) There's no OCMJD version for JDK 7.
2) Currently, latest OCMJD version is for JDK 6.
3) Now what is the possibility that you would be writing some code - which is part of JDK 6, but
not of JDK 5? I think its very minimal.
What I'm trying to say is - OCMJD for JDK 6 doesn't mandate a developer to use
all new features of JDK 6. The only condition is - code must successfully compile and run on latest stable release of JDK 6.
That given, I guess you won't face any issues while using Monkhouse's book. I've used that book for OCMJD 6 and did not have any problems.
I hope this helps.
