java beans
A nice little text with useful snippets of code, and advice on
Events? Adaptors? Applets? What about Beans?
I've been programming for 10 years, and I have 2 bookcases full of ORA and ADW books. I have to say that this is among the most confusing programming books I've seen. Confusing book about beans
This is not a good tutorial about Java Beans. In order to explain the Java Bean concept you have to start with the Java Beans specifications of Sun. This would answer question about which things are relevant and why they are relevant in JavaBeans development. Now the the reader almost jumps into a long winded explanation about events and adapters, wondering why this is relevant and what the writer wants to explain. To make matters worse: the example contains errors! Basically, after the first three chapters I was utterly confused.Read more

Although JavaBeans are most commonly associated with visual user-interface components on the client side, they can also provide the infrastructure for distributed applications across the enterprise on the server. Mark Watson's Read more

Missing concepts
The auther does provide some nice examples of Java Beans - just about half of the book consists of program listings. Read more

Example codes have too many errors
I wonder if the authors have actually compiled and run the codes. It simply won't work. Take Chapter 20 (RMI) as an example:1. In class StockMarket, the line Quote q=(Quote)Naming.lookup("HelloServer"); should beQuote q =(Quote)Naming.lookup("///QuoteServer"); Very intense yet easy to understand and use.
Here is a book that is designed to allow the reader to begin immediately programming JavaBeans.The combination of examples and source code in the text, as well as the accompanying CD allow the reader to develop sophisticated JavaBean applications quickly and easily.This book does an excellent job of explaining design concepts, methodologies, and uses for JavaBeans, as well as providing useful and appropriate tips and ideas for applications.The book explains the relationship of JavaBeans to different component Architectures, and problems associated possibly encountered within these environments.Some basic programming skills are required to adequately use this book, so it should be considered for an intermediate to advanced user level. ...

State of the art, at time of writing
This book covers the 'Awesome' topic of JavaBeans very well. In fact it also delves into the related topic of introspection (orreflection) plus Jar files. This is all done using graphically oriented beans. Although acouple chapters are tough going, the technology is not easy, so what didyou expect? Absolutely, purely, 100% skippable
I wonder why I am editing this review after 2 years because the sales records of this book must have already spoken volumes by now, but I guess I dont want others to spend money on such absolutely disappointing 'material'. Which is what it is, it is certainly not a book. If you are looking for light-years worth of textual reading fodder on the exalted subject of Java Beans and Servlets technology (which are both presumably well established by now), this may be good bed-side reading. If on the other hand you want hands-on code samples with explanations of J2EE oriented concepts, forget this and get yourself a decent book like "Mastering Java Beans" or any of the Wrox titles on the subject. This was one of those useless quick-to-market type books that usually come out in a flurry to cash in on a new technology's hype. Hope this helps you spend your penny wisely.

Decent Book
