Features: The accompanying CD-ROM of this book contains all the program code and executable code, making it convenient for readers to understand the actual execution of programs, analyze, and debug them. Readers are also welcome to perform secondary development of the programs based on their actual needs. This book is suitable for self-study by Java beginners, as well as for readers with some understanding of Java to improve their technical skills. The book provides detailed and clear listings of the usage prototypes and sample code for many commonly used methods in Java, making it a quick reference manual for programmers with some Java programming experience. The book introduces the fundamental programming knowledge of Java 2 in a step-by-step manner, including Java's basic syntax, classes and objects, exception handling in code, the application of arrays and strings, standard input/output, and directory/file management, event programming for graphical user interfaces, multimedia and multithreaded programming, as well as Servlet/JSP dynamic page development techniques. While introducing the basic knowledge, the book also appropriately incorporates some highly practical advanced development examples, such as the development techniques for server/client programs of multiplayer online chess games on the internet, a high-level Applet player capable of displaying audio waveforms under multithreading, and Servlet/JSP dynamic pages featuring classic pagination data browsing, stored procedure calls, and image file upload/download technologies implemented using the third-party jspSmartUpload development package. By reading this book, readers will not only be able to master the basic programming techniques of Java in a very short time but also create some truly commercially viable application software.
