Ruby on Rails New Rough Cuts Titles:

Java Swing

Java Swing

by Marc Loy, Robert Eckstein, Dave Wood, James Elliott, Brian Cole
Second Edition November 2002
1278 pages, $59.99 US

I usually fade about 300 pages into the thousand-page desk-crackers, but some topics need the space. Java Swing is one such example. For my first three or four years of desktop Java development, I frequently dove into this book when the javadocs were dead-ends and I said, "OK, what's the conceptual basis that ties all this together?" Try figuring out table column models or undo/redo without a guide like this...no, don't, it's too hard.

Java I/O

Java I/O

by Elliotte Rusty Harold
March 1999
598 pages, $39.95 US

Java I/O has been a key book for me for years, providing the concrete information I needed to sort out Java's many options for handling Readers, Writers, and other techniques of getting information, especially Unicode, in and out of my programs. Thanks to its examples and detailed explanations, I was able to write a number of projects which gave me vastly more flexibility than an XML parser could provide, which in turn helped me with my editing for O'Reilly.
