A special acknowledgment goes to Lawrence Harris for his work on the table of contents of this book. Thank you!

Thanks to Brian Proffitt and to the rest of the gang at Sams.net. Most of all, thanks to Grace Buechlein, who called me on that May afternoon to talk about this Java book. Everyone has been very kind, and it is great to be involved with a team so committed to producing quality products.

The other authors and contributors to this book also worked hard to produce a high-quality, informative book. I was responsible only for about a half of this book, but it was originally going to be only a chapter or two. My portion just kept growing and growing. This book, above all, was a team effort of authors and editors, many of whom I've never met or spoken to. The efforts from all sides to produce Web Programming with Java are something I have a great deal of respect for, and I appreciate all the work people did to make my 50 percent read well.

I would also like to thank Professor Liew for providing my first introduction to the Java language, along with the rest of the faculty at Lafayette, including Professor Bjorling-Sachs and Professor Collins. Kelly Anne has also been great when I was unavailable to run. My employers at Southwest Research Institute were also great, even though I walked in some mornings so bleary-eyed from late-night writing that I could barely stand. And to Mom and Dad who bought that first Apple IIe fifteen Christmases ago. And to everyone else, friends, family, grandparents: thank you.

Introduction

by Michael Girdley

Today you went Web "surfing" (a silly name, in my opinion), and you scoped out what's there. First you loaded up your favorite site (maybe one you created) and checked it out. Seems like everything's going fine-same white background, same images, nice logo-impressive, to say the least. You make your way around and wander into some home pages, possibly from a school somewhere or from one of the multitude of Web space providers. You might see pages like the one shown in Figure IN.1.

Figure IN.1. A page you might see.

Alternatively, you might visit one of the big commercial sites like ESPNet's Sportszone. You keep seeing references to Java everywhere, and you feel you're missing out.

So you search the Web for a Java-enhanced browser and eventually find one. Then you're off. Another world opens to you. Suddenly, the Web has started coming alive. You reach Gamelan (http://www.gamelan.com), a compendium of links to Java resources, and an amazing number of Java's wonders present themselves.

Or again, say you've seen all the hype (when it reaches Time magazine, it's hype). Of course, you want to use Java in your own pages, but how?

Web Programming with Java is your guidebook to creating, designing, and using Java for and on the World Wide Web. Who Should Buy This Book?

You might be one of the people who should buy this book if you are excited and amazed by the extension that Java provides to the World Wide Web (also called WWW or "the Web"). You might have seen the amazing Java applets out on the Internet, and you are interested in learning how to do it yourself. Perhaps you've heard or seen the hype in magazines and periodicals, and your curiosity is aroused. But you don't know how to make your own Java programs (and you are not alone-I get many e-mails from people who want to know how). You need a source that will function both as a tutorial and as a reference for you to create your own Java applets.

This book provides you the capability to make your Web pages and sites come alive.

Besides serving as a tool to teach Java, this book will help programmers who are already familiar with Java and who are interested in the application of Java to the Web. This book covers Java completely, with special attention paid to its application on the WWW.

The most basic thing that a user of this book should have is access to a computer (pc or workstation) running on a Java-capable platform, to which the Java compiler and interpreter have been ported. At the time of this writing, many platforms are Java-capable. These range from the Sun SPARC workstations to the Microsoft Windows 95 interface to Steve Job's NeXT. A complete OS/2 port has already been completed and released by IBM, though many of the bugs are still being worked out at present.

The version of Sun's Java Developer's Kit (JDK) included in the CD-ROM that accompanies this book contains the full release of the Java language (1.x) for many different platforms.

If your platform isn't supported on the version included with this book, don't worry. Chapter 2, "Getting Started," covers the where and the how of getting the Java Developer's Kit.

Caution
The JDK is currently not ported to run under Microsoft Windows 3.1. As such, this book and the programs included will not be useful for 3.1 users. The JDK does work under Windows 95. If you haven't looked into Windows 95, this may be one more reason to consider it.

If you have access to an appropriate system, what next? Most importantly, you should have an understanding of the major concepts of computer programming and some programming experience. As you will discover in this book, Java is an object-oriented language. Any previous experience you have in object-oriented design (OOD) will be a major bonus, though it is not necessary.

And finally, this is a book that concentrates on the use of Java on the World Wide Web. There are a number of differences between Java programming for the Web and for stand-alone Java programs. You'll see in this book that the difference between these two programming goals extends all the way to their names: stand-alone Java programs are called applications, but Java programs designed for the Web are called applets.

In conclusion, you should Have a background in programming computers. Have access to a computer capable of Java. Be in the market to use Java on the World Wide Web. What's in This Book?

This book covers the complete story of using Java on the Web. It contains all the information necessary to implement and create your very own Java applets and to effectively use all of the power of Java language. Web Programming with Java begins with an overview of the Java language and then deals progressively with more powerful and detailed concepts. Here is a summary of what each chapter contains.

Chapter 1, "An Overview of Java," is an overview of the Java language itself and some of the circumstances which prompted Sun Microsystems to create it. You will learn the why and how of Java as an object-oriented language. This object-oriented nature, you will discover, is key to the platform-independence of Java.

Chapter 2, "Getting Started," covers the major concepts you'll need to know to use Java on your platform. In this chapter, you'll learn about where to get the Java Developer's Kit and how to use it on your system. Finally, you'll see how to compile your Java programs and then view them using Sun's AppletViewer utility.

In Chapter 3, "An Introduction to Java Classes," you'll get a complete overview of what makes a Java class. The multiple classes and packages of classes available to you in the Java class library will all be covered. These include packages such as the java.net package, which enables network connections, and the java.awt package, which enables you to easily create GUIs.

Rounding out Part I, in Chapter 4, "Creating Your Own Objects," you'll get into creating your very own classes. You will learn how to subclass Java classes and also how to subclass your own classes. Finally, you will learn how Java handles Garbage Collection, which frees up system resources from where they are no longer needed.

Part II deals with the concept of building a complete Java applet. One of the most appealing aspects of the Web today is the graphical interaction between the user and source-the applet you create will do just that. Chapter 5, "Writing a Java Applet: The Order Entry System," begins Part II by discussing the first applet you will be creating, the Order Entry System. This chapter also describes exactly what applets entail in Java, and why.

Coverage of the Abstract Windowing Toolkit (AWT) will begin, with a description of the limits and capabilities of both applets and it. The control path of applets (init(), start(), etc.) will also be covered. Finally, you will learn exactly how to put applets into your Web pages.

Chapter 6, "The Order Entry System: Adding Features and Handling Events," begins with an explanation of the Java Abstract Windowing Toolkit, which is a package of classes that facilitate the inclusion and use of the typical user interface components, such as windows, pulldown menus, buttons, and dialog boxes. You'll look into the use and description of the AWT concepts of containers and components. Part of this chapter will cover the implementation of some of the components. The graphical components of the AWT will be covered in this chapter, while others will be left for later chapters. This chapter also covers some of the limitations of applets and compares them with Java applications.

Chapter 7, "The Order Entry System: Entry Fields, Labels, and Validation," covers the remaining components, including those specific to text input and output. There are multiple components dealing with text, including Labels, Text Fields, and Text Areas. The implementation and function of each one of these components is detailed in this chapter. This chapter also takes some more steps toward completing the Order Entry System. You will extend the System to include the components discussed in this chapter and to handle them appropriately. You will also fill in some of the "holes," such as the unfinished updateValues method, and you will activate the "Clear" button. To finish Chapter 7, you will learn the methods of password entry and identification, which are very important in the applet design business. This same section also covers data validation in the entry fields in applets.

Chapter 8, "The Order Entry System: Managing the Applet Layout," is a monster. First, you are going to further explore the concepts of containers in the Java AWT. The chapter covers how to implement the different container types and how they interact with each other. The different containers available enable you to create stand-alone window applets, and also enable you to clean up the appearance of the Order Entry System. I will also describe pop-up dialog boxes and the means to incorporate them into your applets.

Next, Chapter 8 covers the five different AWT Layout Managers. These enable you, the programmer, to place your components in containers in an orderly fashion, while still maintaining platform independence. The five layout managers are: Flow Layout, Border Layout, Card Layout, Grid Layout, and the GridBag Layout. The GridBag Layout is the layout manager you will use to reorganize the Order Entry System applet panel.

Chapter 9, "The Order Entry System: Adding Graphics and a Logo," covers some of the most exciting aspects of Java, those dealing with graphics. I will discuss the AWT Graphics class, which enables you to implement many different graphical items. These features involve drawing, displaying images, and setting colors, among others. I will discuss the Canvas class, which is a special type of component designed for use in dealing with graphics. The Order Entry System applet will also be extended further to include the concepts dealt with in this chapter.

Many languages do not have built-in capabilities to enable you to efficiently detect and deal with errors, mishaps, and events out of the ordinary. Luckily, Java includes a means to handle these exceptions to the norm simply and effectively. You will learn this process of handling exceptions and errors. In other words, although you plan on a certain progression through your code, you will also plan to implement code that will cover the instances where things don't go your way. The handling of exceptions and errors, and the command structures to implement them, will be the focus of this chapter.

Chapter 11, "Reading and Writing with Java," covers the implementation of reading and writing with Java. This process in Java is centered around the concept of streams. Just as a stream of water flows in one direction, starting and ending, so does a stream of data. Streams simply are linear paths that connect a data producer and a data consumer together to allow the serial (one chunk after another) transmission of data. Streams can connect many different things. For example, a stream can connect two independent processes together; they can connect a class to a file or even connect your class to a network. This chapter will cover in depth the usage of the multiple types of streams available in the Java-standard libraries.

Chapter 12, "Network Programming with Java," begins the third and final part of this book. Where the first part introduced the Java language, and the second part covered basic applet techniques, the chapters in this section cover more complicated and powerful applet techniques. Chapter 12 covers network programming with Java. The examples in this chapter rely extensively on the java.net package in the Java class library in order to make, manage, and utilize the network capabilities of Java. You'll learn how to have your applets and applications in Java make connections across LANs and the Internet. And most importantly, you'll learn the process of connecting from your applet to your Web server. The security limitations placed on applets will be discussed. You will develop an on-line inquiry applet, which will demonstrate these concepts.

Chapter 13, "General Purpose Classes," covers the different general purpose classes available in the Java class library and demonstrates their use. Then, Chapter 14, "Extending Java," covers extending Java to interface with other languages, including C applications. Chapter 15, "Interfacing with a Database: Catalog Applet," is about interfacing with databases in Java. It covers the process of making a network connection to a database and then creating an on-line catalog applet.

Chapter 16, "Multithreading with Java," covers one of the most important features of Java: multithreading. It is a complicated topic, which will prove to be one of the most important and powerful features of Java. Chapter 17, "Advanced Graphics: Multimedia," covers multimedia in Java applications. You'll learn how to create your own multimedia applet.

Chapter 18, "Serious Play: Game Applets," covers game programming in Java. The process of creating game elements will be discussed. You will learn about the implementation of those elements into an example applet. Finally, Chapter 19, "Security Issues," covers the future of Java and security implementations of Java.
