Traditionally, Enterprise Java (J2EE, now Java EE) has been viewed as a complex, high performance technology. As a result average developers (Elvis) have looked to alternatives like Spring and Hibernate. This has lead to exaggerated reports that Java EE is dead. Java EE 5 will change the game. Difficult boilerplate code is gone, replaced by simple annotations. The best ideas of Hibernate and Spring are part of EE 5. For the first time, large parts of the Java EE technology are accessible to Elvis and Enterprise Java will become a viable option for departmental applications. The focus of this book is the easy part of Java Enterprise Edition (EE) 5, i.e., the part that is accessible to department level corporate developers, i.e., Elvis. The book is intended to help these developers deploy the solution to a business problem in their department. The book will walk them through simple design choices that cover most departmental needs: a web front end, business logic with session beans, persistence with entity beans, transactions, role-based access control, and web services.There will be pointers for further reading, but the emphasis is on pragmatic solutions for the most common problems in applications of moderate size.

Interest in the Scala programming language continues to grow for many reasons. Scala embraces the functional programming style without abandoning the object-oriented paradigm, and it allows you to write programs more concisely than in Java. Because Scala runs on the JVM, it can access any Java library and is interoperable with familiar Java frameworks. Scala also makes it easier to leverage the full power of concurrency. Written for experienced Java, C++, or C# programmers who are new to Scala or functional programming, Scala for the Impatient, Second Edition, introduces the key Scala concepts and techniques you need in order to be productive quickly. It is the perfect introduction to the language, particularly for impatient readers who want to learn the fundamentals of Scala so they can start coding quickly. It doesn’t attempt to exhaustively list all the features of the language or make you suffer through long and contrived examples. Instead, carefully crafted examples and hands-on activities guide you through well-defined stages of competency, from basic to expert. This revised edition has been thoroughly updated for Scala 2.12 and reflects current Scala usage. It includes added coverage of recent Scala features, including string interpolation, dynamic invocation, implicit classes, and futures. Scala is a big language, but you can use it effectively without knowing all of its details intimately. This title provides precisely the information that you need to get started in compact, easy-to-understand chunks. <ul>
<li>Get started quickly with Scala’s interpreter, syntax, tools, and unique idioms </li> <li>Master core language features: functions, arrays, maps, tuples, packages, imports, exception handling, and more </li> <li>Become familiar with object-oriented programming in Scala: classes, inheritance, and traits </li> <li>Use Scala for real-world programming tasks: working with files, regular expressions, and XML </li> <li>Work with higher-order functions and the powerful Scala collections library </li> <li>Leverage Scala’s powerful pattern matching and case classes </li> <li>Create concurrent programs with Scala futures </li> <li>Implement domain-specific languages </li> <li>Understand the Scala type system </li> <li>Apply advanced “power tools,” such as annotations, implicits, and type classes</li> </ul>

An Accessible Guide to the Java Language and Libraries Modern Java introduces major enhancements that impact the core Java technologies and APIs at the heart of the Java platform. Many old Java idioms are no longer needed and new features such as modularization make you far more effective. However, navigating these changes can be challenging. Core Java® SE 9 for the Impatient, Second Edition, is a complete yet concise guide that includes all the latest changes up to Java SE 9. Written by Cay S. Horstmann–author of the classic two-volume Core Java–this indispensable tutorial offers a faster, easier pathway for learning modern Java. Given Java SE 9’s size and the scope of its enhancements, there’s plenty to cover, but it’s presented in small chunks organized for quick access and easy understanding. Horstmann’s practical insights and sample code help you quickly take advantage of all that’s new, from Java SE 9’s long-awaited “Project Jigsaw” module system to the improvements first introduced in Java SE 8, including lambda expressions and streams. <ul>
<li>Use modules to simplify the development of well-performing complex systems</li> <li>Migrate applications to work with the modularized Java API and third-party modules</li> <li>Test code as you create it with the new JShell Read-Eval-Print Loop (REPL)</li> <li>Use lambda expressions to express actions more concisely</li> <li>Streamline and optimize data management with today’s Streams API</li> <li>Leverage modern concurrent programming based on cooperating tasks</li> <li>Take advantage of a multitude of API improvements for working with collections, input/output, regular expressions, and processes 
</li> </ul>
Whether you’re just getting started with modern Java or you’re an experienced developer, this guide will help you write tomorrow’s most robust, efficient, and secure Java code.
