This is the core book for the serious adopter of Microsoft's implementation of Java ""TM"" . It's all here -- ActiveX integration, HTML and the Web, animation, Web security, AFC, and more. For starters, readers get an overview of the object-oriented paradigm and specifics of how Java has improved the C++ grammar. Then users go on to learn about building powerful, useful applets with the Java AppletWizard; handling the power and pitfalls of multithreading; performing flicker-free animation for extra visual sizzle; and developing full-featured Windows ""RM"" applications.
