ADVANCED JAVA PROGRAMMING

Course Duration: 5 Days Course Overview: This intensive hands-on course explores advanced Java language features and packages. Java programmers will be able to take the content learned and immediately apply it to the problems encountered on the job. The course begins with a discussion of collections. Database programming using JDBC is covered in depth. Object serialization is covered. Distributed programming in Java is introduced, including use of both Remote Method Invocation and CORBA. Reflection in Java and JAR files are covered. Server-side Web programming is introduced using servlets. Java security is covered in depth, including both the Java security model and details of the java.security package. Native methods are covered. There is also an introduction to JavaBeans. Prerequisites: Java Programming and some Java development experience are required. Learning Objectives: Learn intermediate to advanced Java features such as inner classes, object serialization, reflection, the use of JAR files, and native methods. Gain an in-depth understanding of database programming in Java using JDBC Learn Java's security model and how to do security programming in Java Learn how to do distributed programming in Java using RMI and CORBA
