This Java 2 Hands-on Training course is designed to get developers
up to speed in Java. It covers Sun's Java 2 Platform (JDK 1.3)
and contains details on how to set up a Java environment, Java
language fundamentals, Object-oriented programming in Java (including
such advanced topics as abstract classes and interfaces), how
to build applications and Applets, when and how to use the Swing
libraries, input and output, database access through JDBC, and
a host of other pertinent topics. This course does not assume
any development environment; it is strictly about pure Java.
