Features: The third edition of "Java Network Programming" introduces the new features of Java network APIs. This book discusses all the modifications and additions made in JDK 1.4 and 1.5 (now renamed J2SE 5). It covers a comprehensive range of topics, from basic network knowledge to remote method invocation (RMI), including chapters on TCP and UDP sockets, server sockets, URLs and URIs, multicast, and special-purpose APIs (such as JavaMail). The book demonstrates how to write secure network applications using JSSE and explains how to build ultra-high-performance servers using the NIO API. It also covers Java's support for network proxies, web cookies, and URL caching. "Java Network Programming" is not just an explanation of APIs; it also shows how to use them. The book includes numerous examples, featuring thousands of lines of working code (all of which can be obtained online), implementing fully functional network clients and servers. Whether you want to write specialized web servers, secure online order processing programs, simple multicast proxies, or email clients, you will find code to learn from and adapt. Whether you are an experienced network developer, a beginner Java programmer, or just someone who wants to gain a basic understanding of Java network programming, you will find "Java Network Programming (Third Edition)" to be an essential part of your library. Once you start using Java network APIs, you'll find that anything you can imagine is possible.
