An international bestseller for eight years, Just Java™ 2 is the complete, accessible Java tutorial for working programmers at all levels.

New chapters on generics and enumerated types
New coverage of Web services, with practical examples using Google and Amazon Web services
Simplified interactive I/O with printf()
Autoboxing and unboxing of primitive types
Static imports, foreach loop construct, and other new language features

The core language: syntax, objects, interfaces, nested classes, compiler secrets, and much more
Key libraries: date and calendar, pattern matching, network software, mapped I/O, utilities and generic collections
Server-side technology: network server systems, a complete tiny HTML Web server, and XML in Java
