| You've probably heard the buzz about Eclipse, the powerful
open source platform that gives Java developers a new way to
approach development projects. It's like a shiny new car--no
longer content to just admire Eclipse, you're now itching to
get in and drive.
Eclipse is to Java developers what Visual Studio is to .NET
developers--it's an integrated development environment (IDE)
that combines a code editor, compiler, debugger, text
editor, graphical user interface (GUI) builder, and other
components into a single, user-friendly application. It
provides a solid foundation that enables Java developers to
construct and run integrated software-development tools for
web development, application design, modeling, performance,
testing, and much more.
As with any extensive programming tool, however, there's a
lot to learn. And there s no better guy than well-known Java
expert Steve Holzner to teach you. An award-winning and
best-selling author who has been writing about Java topics
since the language first appeared, Holzner delivers just the
kind of targeted, practical, everyday knowledge you need to
hone your mastery of Eclipse.
Perfect as a companion to an Eclipse programming tutorial
(such as Holzner's own Eclipse, O'Reilly, April 2004) or an
ideal stand-alone for all those developers who either don't
want or don't need the tutorial approach, the Eclipse
Cookbook contains task-oriented recipes for more than 800
situations you may encounter while using this new Java
platform--from deploying a web application automatically to
reverse engineering compiled code, from re-naming all
references to a class across multiple packages to
initializing the SWT JNI libraries.
Each recipe in the ever-popular and utterly practical
problem-solution-discussion format for O'Reilly cookbooks
contains a clear and thorough description of the problem, a
brief but complete discussion of a solution, and in-action
examples illustrating that solution. The Eclipse Cookbook
will satiate Java programmers at all levels who are ready to
go beyond tutorials--far beyond writing plug-ins and
extensions--and actually use the powerful and convenient
Eclipse day to day.
