Description:
Java is an Object-oriented programming language. It builds platform-independent applications. Eclipse is an open source extensible Java IDE and provides facility to build client-server and web-based java applications. This course starts with the overview Java language, syntax and object-oriented programming concepts. It explains how to build and run programs using the open source Eclipse IDE. Topics include: Java Overview Fundamentals of Java Programming Elements Java development with Eclipse Java Program Compilation and Execution OO programming with Java Inner Classes Exceptions Interfaces Package and Access Control Input/Output Collection Framework Comparing C++ and Java Reflection Threads JDBC Testing Java application with JUnit and Eclipse Design Patterns
