Developing JavaBeans Using VisualAge for Java, Version 2 [With *]

This book is great for someone who already knows Java, but needs to learn VA quickly. I will be joining a project that uses VA so I need to jump from a text editor to an IDE. This book shows you how to move around easily in VisualAge. It gives tips and tricks of the tool and gives good examples to clarify the text. If you want to learn the Java language, this book is not for you. I didn't give 5 stars because I would have liked more information on advanced features of the tool for servlets and EJB's. However, with the start-up I got from this book, I can learn that on my own.

This is a great book for learning how to use VisualAge for Java. There are many hints and tips on how to develop java programs and use the IDE.

I just passed my VisualAge for Java 2.0 Certification exam, and I used this book extensively to prepare. The examples are simple yet complex enough to teach......excellent book.

VisualAge for Java is the best Java design environment. This book is a great resource for understanding the full potential of VisualAge. Exceptionally clear! Great examples! In depth coverage (servlets, EJBs, etc.).
