Java Extreme Programming Cookbook By Eric M. Burke, Brian M. Coyner
Publisher: O’Reilly Media 2003 | 352 Pages | ISBN: 0596003870 | PDF | 1 MB

Brimming with over 100 “recipes” for getting down to business and actually doing XP, the Java Extreme Programming Cookbook doesn’t try to “sell” you on XP; it succinctly documents the most important features of popular open source tools for XP in Java– including Ant, Junit, HttpUnit, Cactus, Tomcat, XDoclet– and then digs right in, providing recipes for implementing the tools in real-world environments. Each recipe offers solutions that help you put an extreme programming environment together: then provides code for automating the build process and testing. Although the time saved using any one of these solutions will more than pay for the book, Java Extreme Programming Cookbook offers more than just a collection of cut-and-paste code. Each recipe also includes explanations of how and why the approach works, so you can adapt the techniques to similar situations.

Java & XML: Solutions to Real-World Problems By Brett McLaughlin
Publisher: O’Reilly Media 2001 | 550 Pages | ISBN: 0596001975 | PDF | 2 MB

With the XML “buzz” still dominating talk among Internet developers, there’s a real need to learn how to cut through the hype and put XML to work. Java & XML shows how to use the APIs, tools, and tricks of XML to build real-world applications. The result is code and data that are portable. This second edition adds chapters on Advanced SAX and Advanced DOM, new chapters on SOAP and data binding, and new examples throughout. Following a concise introduction to XML basics, the rest of the book focuses on using XML from your Java applications. Java developers who need to work with XML, or think that they will in the future–as well as developers involved in the new peer-to-peer movement, messaging, or web services–will find Java & XML a constant companion. Includes a quick reference on SAX 2.0, DOM Level 2, and JDOM.
