Download or read book Mac OS X for Java Geeks written by Will Iverson and published by "O'Reilly Media, Inc.". This book was released on 2003-04-24 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mac OS X for Java Geeks delivers a complete and detailed look at the Mac OS X platform, geared specifically at Java developers. Programmers using the 10.2 (Jaguar) release of Mac OS X, and the new JDK 1.4, have unprecedented new functionality available to them. Whether you are a Java newbie, working your way through Java Swing and classpath issues, or you are a Java guru, comfortable with digital media, reflection, and J2EE, this book will teach you how to get around on Mac OS X. You'll also get the latest information on how to build applications that run seamlessly, and identically, on Windows, Linux, Unix, and the Mac. The book begins by laying out the Mac OS X tool set, from the included Java Runtime Environment to third-party tools IDEs and Jakarta Ant. You'll then be brought up to speed on the advanced, Mac-specific extensions to Java, including the spelling framework, speech framework, and integration with QuickTime. In addition to clear explanations of these extensions, you'll learn how to write code that falls back to non-Mac specific code when it runs on other platforms, keeping your application portable. Once you have the fundamentals of the Mac OS X Java platform in hand, this book takes you beyond the basics. You'll learn how to get the Apache web server running, and supplement it with the Jakarta Tomcat JSP and servlet container. JSPs and servlets running on Mac OS X are covered, as is installation and connectivity to a database. Once you have your web applications up and running, you'll learn how to interface them with EJBs, as running the JBoss application server on Mac OS X is covered. Finally, the latest developments in web services, including XML-RPC and SOAP, are found within.

Book Mac OS X Panther for Unix Geeks

Download or read book Mac OS X Panther for Unix Geeks written by Brian Jepson and published by "O'Reilly Media, Inc.". This book was released on 2004 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With its rep for being the sort of machine that won't intimidate even the most inexperienced users, what's the appeal of the Mac® for hard-core geeks? The Mac has always been an efficient tool, pleasant to use and customize, and eminently hackable. But now with Mac OS® X's BSD core, many a Unix® developer has found it irresistible. The latest version of Mac OS X, called Panther, makes it even easier for users to delve into the underlying Unix operating system. In fact, you can port Linux® and Unix applications and run them side-by-side with your native Aqua® apps right on the Mac desktop. Still, even experienced Unix users may find themselves in surprisingly unfamiliar territory as they set out to explore Mac OS X. Even if you know Macs through and through, Mac OS X Panther is unlike earlier Macs, and it's radically different from the Unix you've used before. Enter Mac OS X Panther for Unix Geeks by Brian Jepson and Ernest E. Rothman, two Unix geeks who found themselves in the same place you are. The new edition of this book is your guide to figuring out the BSD Unix system and Panther-specific components that you may find challenging. This concise book will ease you into the Unix innards of Mac OS X Panther, covering such topics as: A quick overview of the Terminal application, including Terminal alternatives like iTerm and GLterm Understanding Open Directory (LDAP) and NetInfo Issues related to using the GNU C Compiler (GCC) Library linking and porting Unix software An overview of Mac OS X Panther's filesystem and startup processes Creating and installing packages using Fink and Darwin Ports Building the Darwin kernel Using the Apple® X11 distribution for running X Windows® applications on top of Mac OS X The book wraps up with a quick manpage-style reference to the "Missing Manual Pages" --commands that come with Mac OS X Panther, although there are no manpages. If you find yourself disoriented by the new Mac environment, Mac OS X Panther for Unix Geeks will get you acclimated quickly to the foreign new areas of a familiar Unix landscape.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you're a developer or system administrator lured to Mac OS X because of its Unix roots, you'll quickly discover that performing Unix tasks on a Mac is different than what you're accustomed to.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the rapid evolution of Mac OS X, there have been three major releases in three short years. Each new release has challenged power users to stay ahead of the learning curve-and Mac OS X Panther is by no means an exception. Apple's own documentation gives clues to parts of the puzzle, but until now, there hasn't been a comprehensive resource that charts the internals of the system. Running Mac OS X Panther is the book that Mac power users have been craving. Author James Duncan Davidson takes you deep inside Mac OS X's core and shows you how to make Panther purr like nothing else. This book isn't just for those who want to use Mac OS X, but for those who feel the need to customize, tweak, and dissect Mac OS X. The book covers such topics as: Setting up user accounts for humans and non-humans; Scheduling tasks and monitoring your system; Using HFS+ and the Journaled filesystem used by Panther; Tweaking preferences by hacking plist files or using the defaults command; Opening Directory and Directory Services, including NetInfo and LDAP; Handling printer configuration and printing; Managing networking and network services, including Rendezvous and wireless AirPort networks. The appendix includes juicy details about such things as installing Panther, plus a listing of resources for Mac users and power users alike. Written for readers who are inquisitive and confident enough to dig into their Macintosh system, Running Mac OS X Panther doesn't waste time talking about silly Finder tricks. This book dives right in and explains how Mac OS X works. If you're not a Mac guru when you start reading this book, you will be by the time you finish it. James Duncan Davidson found the Mac religion toward the end of his post at Sun Microsystems. He is a freelance author, speaker, and software consultant, focusing on Mac OS X, Cocoa, java, and XML.

Book Sexing Code

    Book Details:
  • Author : Claudia Herbst
  • Publisher : Cambridge Scholars Publishing
  • Release : 2009-05-05
  • ISBN : 1443810568
  • Pages : 160 pages

Download or read book Sexing Code written by Claudia Herbst and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2009-05-05 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Critically investigating the gender of programming in popular culture, Sexing Code proposes that the de facto representation of technical ability serves to perpetuate the age-old association of the male with intellect and reason, while identifying the female with the body. Challenging this division, in which code is situated within the male sphere, the discussion highlights women¹s contributions in the writing and theorizing of code, particularly in the digital arts, hacking, and hacktivism. Presenting an accessible and lively discussion, Sexing Code demonstrates that the gendering of programming selectively confers the privilege of authorship and is therefore a salient factor in the production of culture in the twenty-first century.

  • ISBN : 0596517513
  • Pages : 224 pages

Download or read book Real World Web Services written by Will Iverson and published by "O'Reilly Media, Inc.". This book was released on 2004-10-04 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The core idea behind Real World Web Services is simple: after years of hype, what are the major players really doing with web services? Standard bodies may wrangle and platform vendors may preach, but at the end of the day what are the technologies that are actually in use, and how can developers incorporate them into their own applications? Those are the answers Real World Web Services delivers. It's a field guide to the wild and wooly world of non-trivial deployed web services.The heart of the book is a series of projects, demonstrating the use and integration of Google, Amazon, eBay, PayPal, FedEx, and many more web services. Some of these vendors have been extremely successful with their web service deployments: for example, eBay processes over a billion web service requests a month!The author focuses on building 8 fully worked out example web applications that incorporate the best web services available today. The book thoroughly documents how to add functionality like automating listings for auctions, dynamically calculating shipping fees, automatically sending faxes to your suppliers, using an aggregator to pull data from multiple news and web service feeds into a single format or monitoring the latest weblog discussions and Google searches to keep web site visitors on top of topics of interest-by integrating APIs from popular websites most people are already familiar with.For each example application, the author provides a thorough overview, architecture, and full working code examples.This book doesn't engage in an intellectual debate as to the correctness of web services on a theological level. Instead, it focuses on the practical, real world usage of web services as the latest evolution in distributed computing, allowing for structured communication via Internet protocols. As you ll see, this includes everything from sending HTTP GET commands to retrieving an XML document through the use of SOAP and various vendor SDKs.

Book Programming Jakarta Struts

Download or read book Programming Jakarta Struts written by Chuck Cavaness and published by "O'Reilly Media, Inc.". This book was released on 2004 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While the look and feel of an enterprise web application is certainly important, developers often find themselves spending far too much time on frontend presentation before coding the business logic of their application. Jakarta Struts addresses this issue by combining Java Servlets, Java ServerPages (JSPs), custom tags, and messaging resources into a unified, reusable framework. The result is a cooperative, synergistic platform that's efficient and suitable for independent developers, large development teams, and everyone in between. Since the initial publication of Programming Jakarta Struts, the Struts open source project has become even more popular. However, documentation for this exciting technology remains woefully limited-most guides are far too basic and lack critical information needed by developers who are writing today's complex web applications. This revised and expanded edition of Programming Jakarta Struts fills the information gap by providing up-to-date information on working with the recently released Struts 1.1. The new edition includes completely new chapters on security and integrating the new JavaServerFaces (JSF) APIs, JavaServer Pages Standard Tag Library (JSTL), and Expression Language (EL) with Struts. With each enterprise system he's developed, author Chuck Cavaness has spent many grueling hours learning invaluable lessons about Struts and figuring out the most efficient way to build web applications. He saves you time and headaches by sharing that invaluable real-world experience in a realistic, practical, "here's how to do it" guide on using the Struts Framework to its fullest potential.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the course of their 20+-year engineering careers, authors Brian Fitzpatrick and Ben Collins-Sussman have picked up a treasure trove of wisdom and anecdotes about how successful teams work together. Their conclusion? Even among people who have spent decades learning the technical side of their jobs, most haven’t really focused on the human component. Learning to collaborate is just as important to success. If you invest in the "soft skills" of your job, you can have a much greater impact for the same amount of effort. The authors share their insights on how to lead a team effectively, navigate an organization, and build a healthy relationship with the users of your software. This is valuable information from two respected software engineers whose popular series of talks—including "Working with Poisonous People"—has attracted hundreds of thousands of followers.
