Core Java
In late 1995, the Java programming
language burst onto the Internet scene and gained instant celebrity
status. The promise of Java is that it will become the universal glue
that connects users with information, whether that information comes
from Web servers, databases, information providers, and any other
imaginable source. Indeed Java is in a unique position to fulfill this
promise. It is an extremely solidly engineered language that has gained
acceptance by all major vendors, except for Microsoft. Its built-in
security and safety features are reassuring both to programmers and to
the users of Java programs. Java even has built-in support that makes
advanced programming tasks,such as network programming, database
connectivity, and multithreading, straightforward.
Since then, Sun Microsystems has released four major revisions of the
Java Software Development Kit. Version 1.02, released in 1996, supported
database connectivity and distributed objects. Version 1.1, released in
1997, added a robust event model, internationalization, and the Java
Beans component model. Version 1.2, released at the end of 1998, has
numerous enhancements, but one major improvement stands out: the “Swing”
user interface toolkit that finally allows programmers to write truly
portable GUI applications. Version 1.3, released in the spring of 2000,
delivered many incremental improvements.
