Download or read book Java Essentials for C and C++ Programmers written by Barry Boone and published by Addison-Wesley Professional. This book was released on 1996 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will help you learn Java & in the most efficient way possible-by building on your C and C++ programming experience. It points out areas where Java is strikingly similar to the two languages, such as implementing behavior operators and control flow, and areas where they completely diverge, such as garbage collection, threads, and exceptions. Using this approach, the book covers all essential Java concepts and techniques: the class libraries, memory management, the use of objects instead of unions and pointers, coding without Goto statements, accessing external libraries, the Java API, multithreading, and more.
