Developing Web Services with Java APIs for XML Using WSDP

International Data Corporation (IDC) predicts that the number of developers of Java technology will rise from the current 2.5 million to 4.2 million in 2003, thus confirming that Java technology is growing in strength and increasingly ready to connect any client, anywhere, at anytime.The Holy War between Microsoft Corporation and Sun Microsystems is heating up as Sun unveils JAX Pack to compete with Microsoft's .NET initiative.As Web developers become more expert with XML, they are moving beyond simply using XML to define data, and are now redefining the possibilities of Web-based services and applications. These XML-based Web services are programmable and reusable applications accessible from anywhere via the Internet. Services developed using this model will run across multiple Web sites, drawing on information and services from each of them, and combining and delivering these services in customized formats to any device.JAX Pack is an all-in-one development kit that utilizes XML to build cross platform Web services. Bundling the Java XML Technologies together into JAX Pack ensures developers a quick and easy development cycle for integration of XML into the Java platform, allowing developers to focus on their business logic and be more productive. JAX Pack brings together several of the key industry standards for XML - such as SAX, DOM, XSLT, SOAP, UDDI, ebXML, and WSDL - into one convenient package. Through support of these technologies in conjunction with the Java Platform, JAX Pack technology enables interoperability between applications, services, and trading partners through a vendor neutral platform that allows for sharing of custom industry standard data formats.For companies that are developing Web services to collaborate with business partners, JAX Pack offers a faster way to develop applications while maintaining independence from any particular vendor's XML technologies.

This Handbook Explains How To Use Java To Program The Robotics Kits, Covering The Java Communications Api, Communicating With The Rcxport Api And The Rcx Java Api, The Lejos System (lego Java Operating System), Programming For The Lejos Environment, Lejos Tool And Internals, And Programming The Robotics Kit With Jini. The Cd-rom Contains All The Source Code From The Book And Rcxport, A Java Interface. Annotation C. Book News, Inc., Portland, Or (booknews.com)

Java Programmers, Preprare for Microsoft's .NET initiative while enhancing your repertoire and marketability with C# for Java Progammers!
C# for Java Programmers will prepare readers for the .NET framework by building on what they already know about object-oriented languages and give them the means to maintain their flexibility and effectiveness in an un-certain marketplace. This book will compare and contrast the advantages and disadvantages of both Java and C# to allow programmers to make their own decisions regarding what each language is best used for.
Whatever your feelings are about Microsoft and its .NET initiative, there can be no denying that C# is here to stay. The C# language, a close cousin to Java, is a new object-oriented programming language (OOPL) designed to work within the .NET framework. It improves upon many of the vague or ill-defined areas of C++ that frequently lead programmers into trouble. C# is a strongly-typed, object-oriented language designed to give the optimum blend of simplicity, expressiveness, and performance.

Written specifically for Java programmers. C# for Java Programmers is not an introductory guide to C#, but builds on what Java programmers already know about object-oriented languages to give them an efficient means for making in-roads to the .NET framework.
Compare and Contrast. This book will compare and contrast many of the advantages and drawbacks of Java and C# to allow programmers to make informed, intelligent decisions based on the unique uses of each language.
Make your own in-depth analysis of C# and Java with the Syngress Wallet CD. Accompanying each book will be a wallet CD containing the HTML version of the text and in-depth code comparison to allow programmers to see for themselves the various differences between Java and C#.

The World Wide Web Consortium's Extensible Markup Language (XML) is quickly becoming the new standard for data formatting and Internet development. XML is expected to be as important to the future of the Web as HTML has been to the foundation of the Web, and has proven itself to be the most common tool for all data manipulation and data transmission. Hack Proofing XML provides readers with hands-on instruction for how to secure the Web transmission and access of their XML data. This book will also introduce database administrators, web developers and web masters to ways they can use XML to secure other applications and processes. The first book to incorporate standards from both the Security Services Markup Language (S2ML) and the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS) in one comprehensive book Covers the four primary security objectives: Confidentiality, Integrity, Authentication and Non-repudiation Not only shows readers how to secure their XML data, but describes how to provide enhanced security for a broader range of applications and processes Lego robots!
