Java's success is evident all across the programming landscape, from embedded devices to enterprise-class distributed systems. As its use increases, the pressure grows for it to expand to meet the diverse needs of the developer communities.
JDK 1.4 Tutorial quickly teaches experienced developers as well as novices the new JDK 1.4 features such as a new I/O system, a persistent preferences framework, Java WebStart, and Java regular expressions. It provides a clear exposition of the important new topics with plenty of well-documented code. All the examples are substantial and solve real-world problems without the clutter of unnecessary details. The new features are covered in a comprehensive and matter-of-fact way without digressions into
philosophy or theory. After reading this book, developers will be able to use Java's new features with confidence and skill.
