The Java™ language provides most of what professional programmers expect to see in a language, and even in an object-oriented language. Beyond the basics, though, the Java language provides some useful tools for creating sophisticated programs. This tutorial, a follow-on to "Introduction to Java programming," also by Roy Miller will introduce you to some of these more advanced Java language features commonly seen on typical Java technology development projects.

Prerequisites

This tutorial introduces you to capabilities of the Java language that are more sophisticated than those covered in the "Introduction to Java programming" tutorial. In order to get to the most out of this tutorial, you should have completed that introductory tutorial, or be familiar with the concepts covered in it.


System requirements

You'll need to have the following installed to run the examples or sample code in this tutorial:

  • JDK 1.4.2 or higher (5.0 recommended)
  • The Eclipse IDE

All code examples in this tutorial have been tested with JDK 5.0 on the Windows XP platform, but should work without modification using JDK 1.4.x. You can download source code for the tutorial from the Resources section. It's contained in intermediate.jar, which you can import into your Eclipse workspace.
