JBuilder 3 Unleashed does an excellent job of explaining how to write Java programs in Borland's newest Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for the language. With plenty of code (all of which ships on the accompanying CD-ROM) and lots of documentation on Java classes, this book enables the intermediate-level Java programmer to become more capable with JBuilder and the language as a whole. You'll find good information if you want to write servlets, interface with databases, or do any of dozens of other software development tasks.
JBuilder 3 Unleashed naturally covers the JBuilder user interface, but the authors don't explain interface elements for their own sake. Rather, they explain the JBuilder interface in the context of doing certain Java programming jobs. Subjects include some fairly exotic aspects of the Java language, including elaborate user interface design, multithreading, internationalisation and client-server architecture.
Coverage of programming JavaBeans (and especially serialisation as it applies to Beans) with JBuilder is exemplary, as are the sections on remote Method Invocation (RMI) and CORBA. In addition to their coverage of the mechanics of JBuilder and Java, the authors include quite a bit of management and engineering information on using Borland's development environment as the centrepiece of a development team, including versioning, testing and object-oriented analysis and design. --David Wall
Topics covered: JBuilder user interface, multithreading, internationalisation, client-server architecture, programming JavaBeans, RMI and CORBA.

Perfect for the novice Java developer, Learn Java with JBuilder 6 provides a winning and approachable tour of Java using JBuilder 6 by employing a hands-on approach to language basics and simple component development.
Most Java books rely on the free command-line Java compiler shipped with Sun's Java 2 SDK. This text bucks the trend with a focus on using the power of JBuilder to create simple applets and applications. Beginning with setting up the JBuilder tool, its wizards and code editors are used to jump-start this introductory tutorial. There are 21 chapters (called "skills") that highlight particular JBuilder tasks, like using the wizards to create basic applets (and applications). One section of note here provides an easily digestible tour of Java language basics. Early chapters also give you the basics of drawing and file I/O APIs.
Basic applets that do simple animations and provide simple user interfaces with Swing components are the rule here. Several chapters dig into the details of creating (and consuming) custom JavaBeans for clients. While this is arguably an old-fashioned approach to learning Java, as client-side JavaBeans have been eclipsed by server-side Java, over the past few years the benefit of this approach is that newbies will begin to code with re-usable components early on. Subsequent chapters look at adding bean persistence (using serialisation APIs) property editors and other more advanced features with beans.
Later chapters extend the range of options for basic Java programmers with a look at deployment, menus and toolbars. This text circles back to the JBuilder environment with sections on customising the IDE, creating custom code templates and other productivity-boosters. Final sections look at JBuilder 6 features for the enterprise, notably built-in UML support and EJB wizards.
The presentation, style and hands-on approach to using JBuilder's wizards to do more, and quicker, will make basic Java programming more accessible to a wider range of readers seeking to tackle this popular programming language for the first time. --Richard Dragan
Topics covered: Introductory tutorial for Java using the JBuilder 6 IDE; installing and registering JBuilder 6; tour of basic IDE features (including project, applet, and application wizards); tutorial to basic Java syntax (data types, strings, classes, variables, and methods); exception handling, basic applet programming (including animation, sound, and multithreading support); basic Swing controls for user interface programming; layout managers (including XYLayout); basic drawing techniques using the Java2D APIs; file I/O APIs explained; tutorial for client-side JavaBeans, built-in beans, and the JBuilder Component Palette; creating custom beans (with properties, methods, and events); using bean introspection and custom property editors; serialisation and bean persistence; Java deployment with JAR files; menu support (plus using the built-in dialog boxes for choosing colours and fonts); using toolbars, internationalisation (including resource bundling); customising the JBuilder environment (with project defaults and code templates); using code obfuscation; debugging multi-threaded programs (the JBuilder debugger); introduction to JBuilder Professional and Enterprise features (including UML support and EJB wizards).
