Editorial Reviews:

Developing Java Servlets, Second Edition, is a comprehensive, code-intensive book for professional Java developers. It explains the Java Servlet API architecture and client/server development concepts and contains detailed, professional programming techniques for building sophisticated e-commerce and database servlet applications. New topics covered in the updated edition are:

  • JavaMail
  • Servlets with XML, JSP, and EJB
  • Pluggable web applications
  • Wireless servlets with WML/WMLScripts

For Java developers, download time and execution performance significantly limit the practical sphere of Java applets. Server-side Java is the key solution. Developing Java Servlets presents this important technology for proficient Java developers; however, don't look here for a primer to the base Java language.

While the book includes numerous Java code examples, the lack of a companion CD-ROM is disappointing. And while there is a reference to the publisher's Web site, it wasn't easy to find the URL in the book. The writing is also a bit choppy in places.

To illustrate many of the concepts in the book, a complete sample application is presented. The author uses an online movie catalog system as the book's case study. This example includes database access, user interface implementation, and simple shopping basket features to put the technology in good perspective.

Developing Java Servlets expects readers to have expertise in Java and a basic understanding of object-oriented programming going in. As long as you have this background, it is a solid manual to the cross-platform server processing architecture. --Stephen W. Plain

Topics covered: Development environment, communication details of servlets, and using servlets to access databases with the Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) architecture.

5 out of 5 stars The best Servlets & JSP's book

I have 5 books about Servlets and/or JSP's including the disapointed JavaServerPages and Java Servlet Programming both from o'reilly.

This is the best of all, all you need to know is Java, that's all. If you need to develop a Servlet project this book puts you on the road in the first 130 pages. Then if you want to have a better understanding you can read the rest of the book. The book has 24 chapters and 7 apendix and each chapter covers a topic in a very easy and comprehensive way with out confusing references like the o'reilly books that make you feel stupid.

More over this book has three complete JSP examples so well written that you can use part of the code for your own projects.

5 out of 5 stars Great Book For Learning Servlet API

Hi,
This is great book if you want to learn Java Servlet API. If you have little bit experience in Java then this is the best book to start with Servlets.

Thanks,

5 out of 5 stars Great Update to the First Edition!

This book is well put together, and is a good reference for Servlets and JSPs. The first edition was a bit outdated and irrelevant, so this book is much appreciated. The source code is still not up on the publisher'ssite... .

4 out of 5 stars Quick guide to the server-side

I was pleased to learn so quickly about server-side Java. This book is called servlets but also handles interesting topics like JSP, RMI and Corba. Those topics are very brief, though. Otherwise this book would have been ten times the size.

It does have mistakes that only attentive readers might catch. It was a bit annoying that all these re-usable components were explained, Chpater 4 about the HTML Objects could be completely skipped without harm. A CD-rom containing this code could be handy. Perhaps they can do so when re-printing.

I quickly learned to make servlets so it's a good book for it. It does require you to have some expertise in Java, but if you want to write servlets then you should already have that.
