Creating Java Beans: Components for Distributed Applications

by Mark Watson

Focusing on the use of JavaBeans for distributed software applications, this book provides programmers with techniques, examples, and reusable components for intranet, Internet, client/server, and other distributed applications. It develops example software components that function as JavaBeans components, stand-alone Java applications, Java applets, and reusable class libraries.

Creating JavaBeans puts you in a "distributed mindset" allowing you to think of multiple, distributed components as a single framework for accomplishing tasks in a distributed environment. It quickly teaches you to write and package Java components and shows you how to use these techniques to build useful example components including:

POP3/SMTP compatible email a World Wide Web search agent client/server JavaBeans using the JDBC Database protocol, threads and sockets, and Remote Method Invocation

Software on CD-ROM
The accompanying CD-ROM contains all of the example components developed in the book plus the JavaSoft Java Development Kit version 1.1 and the JavaBeans development Kit version 1.0.
