Java for C++ Programmers (prepared by Prof. Marvin Solomon U. Wisconsin- and slightly modified by me) Contents Introduction Applications vs Applets The first thing you have to decide when writing a Java program is whether you are writing an application or an applet. An application is a stand-alone program. Java was orginally designed to build active, multimedia, interactive environments, so its standard runtime library has lots of features to aid in creating user interfaces. JavaScript You may have heard of JavaScript. The Java API The Java langauge is actually rather small and simple - an order of magnitude smaller and simpler than C++, and in some ways, even smaller and simpler than C. java.lang contains things like character-strings, that are essentially "built in" to the langauge. A First Example Large parts of Java are identical to C++. /** Sort the array a[] in ascending order ** using an insertion sort. void sort(int a[], int size) { for (int i = 1; i < size; i++) { // a[0..i-1] is sorted int x = a[i]; int j;

Trail: Learning the Java Language (The Java™ Tutorials) This trail covers the fundamentals of programming in the Java programming language. Object-Oriented Programming Concepts teaches you the core concepts behind object-oriented programming: objects, messages, classes, and inheritance. This lesson ends by showing you how these concepts translate into code. Feel free to skip this lesson if you are already familiar with object-oriented programming. Language Basics describes the traditional features of the language, including variables, arrays, data types, operators, and control flow. Classes and Objects describes how to write the classes from which objects are created, and how to create and use the objects. Annotations are a form of metadata and provide information for the compiler. Interfaces and Inheritance describes interfaces—what they are, why you would want to write one, and how to write one. Numbers and Strings This lesson describes how to use Number and String objects The lesson also shows you how to format data for output.
Chapter 1. Basic Application and Environment Setup Chapter 1. Basic Application and Environment Setup 1.1. Create the project directory structure We are going to need a place to keep all the source and other files we will be creating, so let's create a directory named 'springapp'. Find below a screen shot of what your project directory structure must look like after following the above instructions. Since we are creating a web application, let's start by creating a very simple JSP page named 'index.jsp' in the 'war' directory. 'springapp/war/index.jsp': <html><head><title>Example :: Spring Application</title></head><body><h1>Example - Spring Application</h1><p>This is my test. Just to have a complete web application, let's create a 'WEB-INF' directory inside the 'war' directory and place a 'web.xml' file in this new directory. 'springapp/war/WEB-INF/web.xml': <? 1.3. Let's now write the Ant build script that we are going to use throughout the tutorial. 'springapp/build.xml': 'springapp/build.properties': 1.4. 1.5. 1.6. <? 1.7. 1.8. 1.9. 1.11.
JAVA vs C++ Contents In Java, every variable, constant, and function (including main) must be inside some class. Here's a simple example program: class Test { public static void main( String [] args ) { System.out.println("Hello world!") Things to note: There is no final semi-colon at the end of the class definition. Assume the following declarations have been made: int x = 20, y = 10; What is printed when each of the following statements is executed? System.out.println(x + y); System.out.println(x + y + "!") solution C++ Files vs Java Files A C++ programmer deals with source files, object files, and executable files: Source Files: .h and .cc (or .cpp or .C) created by: you (the programmer) contain : C++ source code two kinds : .h (header files) contain class definitions and function specifications (just headers - no bodies) must be included by every file that uses the class / calls the functions .cc contain implementations of class member functions and "free" functions, including the main function Notes:

There are few questions I hear more often than that one.In February, I interviewed Laszlo Bock, who is in charge of all hiring at Google - about 100 new hires a week - to try to understand what an employer like Google was looking for and why it was increasingly ready to hire people with no college degrees. Bock's remarks generated a lot of reader response, particularly his point that prospective bosses today care less about what you know or where you learned it - the Google machine knows everything now - than what value you can create with what you know. With graduations approaching, I went back to Google to ask Bock to share his best advice for job-seekers anywhere, not just at Google. Here is a condensed version of our conversations:You're not saying college education is worthless?"
List of Java keywords A snippet of Java code with keywords highlighted in blue and bold font List[edit] The following is a list of Java keywords, along with brief descriptions of their functions:[2] abstract boolean break byte The byte keyword is used to declare a field that can store an 8-bit signed two's complement integer.[7] This keyword is also used to declare that a method returns a value of the primitive type byte.[9] case The case keyword is used to create individual cases in a switch statement; see switch.[10] catch Defines an exception handler—a group of statements that are executed if an exception is thrown in the block defined by a preceding try keyword. The char keyword is used to declare a field that can store a 16-bit Unicode character.[7] This keyword is also used to declare that a method returns a value of the primitive type char.[9] Although reserved as a keyword in Java, const is not used and has no function.[2] For defining constants in java, see the 'final' reserved word. default do double finally float
