This essential guide offers serious Java developers a focused resource on using JDBC 3 to build robust, enterprise-class applications for the Internet or intranet. This title provides a step-by-step tutorial on the JDBC 3 API, as well as many examples and discussions about advanced techniques. It also provides a complete reference of the API's packages and extensions. Powerful and enhanced new features are covered: Batch updates, DataSource object, transaction savepoints, connection pooling, distributed transaction support, XA compatibility, types of ResultSets, holdable cursors, SQL99 types, scalar functions, CLOB, array, reference and datalink objects, customized type mapping, transform groups, ParameterMetaData API, auto generated keys, and more.

When creating complex Java enterprise applications, do you spend a lot of time thumbing through a myriad of books and other resources searching for what you hope will be the API that's right for the project at hand?Java Database Best Practices rescues you from having to wade through books on each of the various APIs before figuring out which method to use! This comprehensive guide introduces each of the dominant APIs (Enterprise JavaBeans, Java Data Objects, the Java Database Connectivity API (JDBC) as well as other, lesser-known options), explores the methodology and design components that use those APIs, and then offers practices most appropriate for different types and makes of databases, as well as different types of applications.Java Database Practices also examines database design, from table and database architecture to normalization, and offers a number of best practices for handling these tasks as well. Learn how to move through the various forms of normalization, understand when to denormalize, and even get detailed instructions on optimizing your SQL queries to make the best use of your database structure. Through it all, this book focuses on practical application of these techniques, giving you information that can immediately be applied to your own enterprise projects.Enterprise applications in today's world are about data-- whether it be information about a product to buy, a user's credit card information, or the color that a customer prefers for their auto purchases. And just as data has grown in importance, the task of accessing that data has grown in complexity. Until now, you have been left on your own to determine which model best suits your application, and how best to use your chosen API. Java Database Practices is the one stop reference book to help you determine what's appropriate for your specific project at hand. Whether it's choosing between an alphabet soup of APIs and technologies--EJB, JDO, JDBC, SQL, RDBMS, OODBMS, and more on the horizon, this book is an indispensable resource you can't do without.

Java Database Bible is a comprehensive approach to learning how to develop and implement a professional level Java 2 database program using the Java database connection API (JDBC 3.0). Includes an introduction to relational databases and designing database applications; covers interacting with a relational database using a Java program; and shows how to create and work with XML data storage using a Java program.

Shows Java developers everything they need to know to build Java database applications with MySQL. Takes a hands-on, code-intensive approach in which readers will learn how to build a sophisticated Web database management application. Begins with a review of the fundamentals of MySQL. Explains using Java's JDBC with MySQL, as well as servlet and JSP programming with MySQL. Provides a code-rich tutorial on how to build the sample Java database application using EJBs. The companion Web site provides the full code examples plus links to useful sites.

Coding and testing are often considered separate areas of expertise. In this comprehensive guide, author and Java expert Scott Oaks takes the approach that anyone who works with Java should be equally adept at understanding how code behaves in the JVM, as well as the tunings likely to help its performance. You’ll gain in-depth knowledge of Java application performance, using the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) and the Java platform, including the language and API. Developers and performance engineers alike will learn a variety of features, tools, and processes for improving the way Java 7 and 8 applications perform. Apply four principles for obtaining the best results from performance testing Use JDK tools to collect data on how a Java application is performing Understand the advantages and disadvantages of using a JIT compiler Tune JVM garbage collectors to affect programs as little as possible Use techniques to manage heap memory and JVM native memory Maximize Java threading and synchronization performance features Tackle performance issues in Java EE and Java SE APIs Improve Java-driven database application performance

This book highlights the benefits of web development using Java tools. This book demonstrates how to make this technology work.

This book comes as an answer for students, lecturers, or the general public who want to learn Java GUI programming starting from scratch. This book is suitable for beginner learners who want to learn Java GUI programming from the basic to the database level. This book is also present for JAVA learners who want to increase their level of making GUI-based database applications for small, medium, or corporate businesses level. The discussion in this book is not wordy and not theoretical. Each discussion in this book is presented in a concise and clear brief, and directly to the example that implements the discussion. Beginner learners who want to learn through this book should not be afraid of losing understanding of the programming concepts, because this book in detail discusses the concepts of Java programming from the basic to the advanced level. By applying the concept of learning by doing, this book will guide you step by step to start Java GUI programming from the basics until you are able to create database applications using JDBC and MySQL. Here are the material that you will learn in this book. CHAPTER 1 : This chapter will give you brief and clear introduction about how to create desktop application using Java GUI starting from how to setup your environments, create your first project, understand various control for your form, and understand how to interact with your form using event handling. CHAPTER 2 : This chapter will discuss clearly about the concept and the implementatiton of data types and variables in Java GUI. CHAPTER 3 : This chapter will discuss in detail about how to make decisions or deal with a condition in the program. This chapter is the first step to deeper understanding of logics in programming. This chapter specifically discusses relational operators and logical operators, if statements, if-else statements, and switch-case statements, and how to implement all of these conditional statements using Java GUI. CHAPTER 4 : This chapter will discuss in detail the looping statements in Java including for statement, while statement, do-while statement, break statement, and continue statement. All of these looping statements will be implemented using Java GUI. CHAPTER 5 : This chapter will discuss how to use methods to group codes based on their funcitonality. This discussion will also be the first step for programmers to learn how to create efficient program code. This chapter will discuss in detail the basics of methods, methods with return values, how to pass parameters to methods, how to overload your methods, and how to make recursive methods. CHAPTER 6 : This chapter will discuss in detail how to create and use arrays, read and write file operations, and how to display data stored in arrays or files in graphical form. CHAPTER 7 : This chapter will discuss in detail the basics of MySQL, how to access databases using JDBC and MySQL, and how to perform CRUD operations using JDBC and MySQL. CHAPTER 8 : In this chapter we will discuss more about Java GUI programming. This chapter will discuss in detail about how to make a program that consists of multi forms, how to create MDI application, and how to create report using iReport with data stored in a database.
