New! Java Resource Center
With millions of developers worldwide, Java is the most popular programming language in use today. You can use Java to create everything from applications for cell phones and PDAs, to desktop applications and distributed enterprise applications that execute on many platforms. Java can run on hardware from the smallest devices (such as the chips embedded in credit cards) to the largest supercomputers. Our new Java Resource Center focuses on the enormous amount of Java free content available online. Start your search here for resources, downloads, tutorials, documentation, books, e-books, journals, articles, blogs and more that will help you develop Java applications.
New! More Tutorials from the
Deitel Free Content Library!
Introduction to Java 5.0's Generic List Collections: This four-part tutorial presents Java 5.0's List collections, which are now implemented as generic classes. Part 1 overviews the classes of the java.util package that implement the List interface—ArrayList, LinkedList and Vector. Parts 2, 3 and 4 present code examples that demonstrate each of these classes.
Introduction to the C++ Standard Template Library (STL): This twelve-part tutorial discusses the C++ Standard Template Library (STL) and its three key components—containers, iterators and algorithms.

Talk is cheap…if you are using IP Telephony! IP Telephony is one of the hottest emerging technologies, and it is attracting the attention of the biggest players on the Internet—Google offers GoogleTalk, Skype was purchased by eBay, and Yahoo! offers Yahoo! Messenger with Voice. These services allow users to call friends, family, etc. worldwide via their PCs for free (they offer various premium services, including calling from your PC to traditional phones). How will this affect traditional telecom businesses? Who are the other players in the emerging telephony market? What is the future of telephony?
Check out The O'Reilly Emerging Telephony Conference that will focus on cutting edge technologies, tools and companies that are changing the communications industry. Hear what the experts predict for the future of IP Telephony. We’re intrigued and registered for the conference—hope to see you there!

Read the Preface
Written for programmers with a background in C++, Java or other high-level languages, this book applies the Deitel signature live-code approach to teaching programming, and explores Microsoft’s C# language and the new .NET 2.0 in depth. The book is updated for Visual Studio 2005 and C# 2.0 and presents C# concepts in the context of fully tested programs, complete with syntax shading, detailed code walkthroughs, and program outputs. The book features 213 complete C# applications with almost 17,000 lines of proven C# program code and hundreds of programming tips that help you build robust applications. Read the Preface.
[Important note: This book is
intended for the professional market and does not include
much of the introductory pedagogy, exercises or end-of-chapter material typically found in our How to Program Series college textbooks. No instructor resources are available. If you are teaching an upcoming C# college or professional training course, check out our Visual C# 2005
How to Program, 2/e and Simply C#, 1/e textbooks (each with full ancillary support).]

The chapter on Networking is one of the best I've seen.” —Peter Bromberg, Merrill Lynch, C# MVP
“A comprehensive introduction to XML, and one of the clearest tutorials on Web services I’ve read, with great
examples. An excellent chapter on generics.” —Gavin Osborne, Saskatchewan Institute of Applied Science and Technology

“Excellent introduction to .NET collections.” —José Antonio González Seco, Andalucia’s Parlamient
“A beautiful presentation of threads.” —Pavel Tsekov, Caesar BSC
“The ATM OOD/UML case study is excellent! The implementation of the design developed in the early chapters gives the reader a fantastic model of a real world problem. You hit a home run with this one!” —Catherine Wyman, Devry-Phoenix
“Overall fantastic coverage on inheritance. The examples give a crystal clear picture of inheritance and make the fundamentals very clear.” —Dharmesh Chauhan, Microsoft

Even though I have been a heavy Linux user and SysAdmin for eight years and have hacked both Linux and Unix kernels, I learned a lot." —Bob Toxen Author of Real World Linux Security, 2/e and Contributor to Berkeley Unix
"Uses a unique teaching style to present, in an unparalleled pedagogical approach, the evolution of fifty years of operating systems research; no other book provides as accessible and comprehensive a tutorial." —Euripides Montagne University of Central Florida

Simply Series (for the classroom, self-study and distance learning programs)
This Deitel Simply Series combines the our signature live-code approach (emphasizing complete, working programs, rather than code snippets, and always showing sample outputs) with an application-driven methodology, in which readers build real-world
applications that incorporate programming
fundamentals. Using a step-by-step tutorial approach,
readers learn programming basics. Each successive tutorial
builds on previous concepts and
introduces new programming features. Many Simply Series books also
include higher-end topics such as database programming,
multimedia and graphics, and Web applications development. These books are appropriate for the classroom, for self-study and for distance learning programs.
Simply Series Testimonials:
"This is a really innovative approach to the
presentation of basic programming concepts. The
tutorials are subdivided into small, easily
understood pieces as a concept program is
developed." —Ed Brunjes, Miramar College
"This text is ideal for self-learning. It not only teaches all the important fundamentals, but also demonstrates right from the first tutorial how easy it is to rapidly build all kinds of useful applications. Anyone can become an effective programmer simply by working through this text." —Jim Huddleston, Independent Consultant
"What especially impressed me about the text is the absolutely wonderful sets of exercises that the authors have included to motivate students to learn programming. I'm really looking forward to using this text in the classroom." —Ed Weihrauch, Community College of Allegheny County
