The networking capabilities of the Java platform have been extended
considerably since the first edition of the book. This new edition
covers version 1.5-1.7, the most current iterations, as well as
making the following improvements:
The API (application programming interface) reference sections in
each chapter, which describe the relevant parts of each class, have
been replaced with (i) a summary section that lists the classes and
methods used in the code, and (ii) a ?gotchas? section that
mentions nonobvious or poorly-documented aspects of the objects.
In addition, the book covers several new classes and capabilities
introduced in the last few revisions of the Java platform. New
abstractions to be covered include NetworkInterface,
InterfaceAddress, Inet4/6Address, SocketAddress/InetSocketAddress,
Executor, and others; extended access to low-level network
information; support for IPv6; more complete access to socket
options; and scalable I/O. The example code is also modified to
take advantage of new language features such as annotations,
enumerations, as well as generics and implicit iterators where
appropriate.
Most Internet applications use sockets to implement network
communication protocols. This book's focused, tutorial-based
approach helps the reader master the tasks and techniques essential
to virtually all client-server projects using sockets in Java.
Chapter 1 provides a genral overview of networking concepts to
allow readers to synchronize the concepts with terminology. Chapter
2 introduces the mechanics of simple clients and servers. Chapter 3
covers basic message construction and parsing. Chapter 4 then deals
with techniques used to build more robust clients and servers.
Chapter 5 (NEW) introduces the scalable interface facilities which
were introduced in Java 1.5, including the buffer and channel
abstractions. Chapter 6 discusses the relationship between the
programming constructs and the underlying protocol implementations
in more detail. Programming concepts are introduced through simple
program examples accompanied by line-by-line code commentary that
describes the purpose of every part of the program. The book's Web
site contains many examples of command-based sockets-related code
discussed throughout the book. No other resource presents so
concisely or so effectively the material necessary to get up and
running with Java sockets programming.
KEY FEATURES
* Focused, tutorial-based instruction in key sockets programming
techniques allows reader to quickly come up to speed on Java
applications.
* Concise and up-to-date coverage of the most recent platform (1.7)
for Java
applications in networking technology
* Provides code for all example programs via a companion Web site
to let the reader see the important objects and methods in context
and to understand the purpose of each line of code.
