XML is the logical choice for a powerful data medium transferable across applications and platforms. This book takes a streamlined approach, giving the reader all they need to hit the ground running, without making them trawl through hundreds of pages of syntax. The book is also thoroughly up-to-date, covering the newest XML standards (DOM 3.0, XSLT 2.0, XPath 2.0) and Java tools (including JAXB, Xerces2-j, JAXP, XML Beans, and many more,) and the relevant new features of Java 5 and 6. In short, the book gives readers all they need to master cutting edge XML development with Java.

This code-intensive guide to the tools in the Apache XML Project most used by Java developers aims to familiarize developers with the capabilities of the Apache tools, and to demonstrate professional techniques for using the tools in various combinations to construct real-world applications.

*Exploits the finer points of core and standard editions of Java 2 *Updated to include the final Java 2SE 5.0 (Tiger) release * *Ideal for experienced non-Java and Java programmers who need intermediate level book

This title provides an in-depth technical look at XML Data Binding, offering complete documentation of all features in both the Sun Microsystems API and popular open source alternative implementations.

What is this book about? If you're a Java programmer working with XML, you probablyalready use some of the tools developed by the Apache SoftwareFoundation. This book is a code-intensive guide to the Apache XMLtools that are most relevant for Java developers, including Xerces,Xalan, FOP, Cocoon, Axis, and Xindice. Theodore Leung, a founding member of the Apache XML Project,focuses on the unique capabilities of these best-of-breed XMLtools. With the help of a sample application, he demonstrates howyou can use them in unison to develop professional XML/Javaapplications for the real world. If you need in-depth information to help you assemble a workabletoolbox for developing sophisticated XML-based applications, you'llfind it in this volume. What does this book cover? In this book, you will find out about the following: How the Apache XML Project relates to Java programming When you'll need some of Xerces' extra parsing features, likegrammar caching How to use Xalan's XSLTC to compile XSLT stylesheets intoJava Prerequisites and applications for FOP and Batik Cocoon concepts and development Development techniques and practical usage for Xindice How to develop back-end applications with XML RPC and Axis Applications and concepts for XML Security Who is this book for? This book is written for professional Java developers who havehad some exposure to XML and XSLT. To get the most from it, youshould be familiar with Java, Java Web development technologies(e.g., servlets), and the command line Java tools.

Pro Java 8 Programming covers the core Java development kit. It takes advantage of the finer points of the core standard edition (SE) and development kit version 8. You'll discover the particulars of working with the Java language and APIs to develop applications in many different contexts. You will also delve into more advanced topics like lambda expressions, closures, new i/o (NIO.2), enums, generics, XML, metadata and the Swing APIs for GUI design and development. By the end of the book, you’ll be fully prepared to take advantage of Java's ease of development, and able to create powerful, sophisticated Java applications.

Enterprise Java Beans (EJB) is a server-side component architecture and a central part of the J2EE platform. EJB enables the rapid development of distributed, secure and portable Java applications. This follow-up title to Professional Java Server Programming - J2EE Edition goes from design principles and theory right through to building robust real-world applications and concludes with several case studies including EJB applications and COM integration. Published to coincide with the EJB 2.0 specification this book is an in-depth guide to every aspect of this component architecture.

PLEASE PROVIDE SUMMARY

This title provides a comprehensive reference/tutorial for Java programmers who want to tap the synergy of XML and Java in key Web development tasks. The Java, XML, and Web Services Bible serves as a reference/tutorial for a variety of XML and Java related topics. It covers areas such as B2B, Instant Messaging, Java and XML Binding, Scalable Vector Graphics, and Application development with XML and JSP. It discusses some commercial and open technologies used with Java and XML such as Cocoon, Batik, and Xerces.
