"Charting the Course... Java Programming Language. Course Summary

Transcription

1 Course Summary Description This course emphasizes becoming productive quickly as a Java application developer. This course quickly covers the Java language syntax and then moves into the object-oriented features of the language. Students will then use several of the provided API packages, such as I/O streams, collections, Swing GUI programming, threads, and accessing a database with JDBC. This course is current to Java 7 and uses the Eclipse IDE. Topics Course Introduction Getting Started with Java Eclipse Language Fundamentals Objects and Classes Using Java Objects Inheritance in Java Advanced Inheritance and Generics Packages Exception Handling Input/Output Streams Core Collection Classes Collection Sorting and Tuning Inner Classes Introduction to Swing Swing Events and Layout Managers Introduction to JDBC JDBC SQL Programming Introduction to Threads Thread Synchronization and Concurrency Appendix A Java Performance Appendix B Regular Expressions Appendix C Advanced JDBC Appendix D Java EE Overview Appendix E Eclipse Shortcuts Audience Programmers moving to object-oriented programming using Java. Prerequisites Professional programming experience in C, C++ or C# is required. Knowledge of Object-Oriented concepts is required. Duration Five days
