Introducing .NET - James Conard - Paperback

Apple Macintosh computers are hardware platforms which programmers have been keen to use. Mac OS X is Apple's new UNIX based operating system. They have included in the operating system a fully functioning Java 2 platform. Java will be used: to develop cross platform Java applications; as a server-side development language to build web applications; and to exploit the Cocoa Programming interface (an object oriented application framework and run-time environment which can be thought of as a set of re-useable application building blocks which can used as they are or extended as needed) to create native Mac OS X applications.-- Since the launch of Mac OS X with the cross platform features of Java, it has changed developers' concepts of the Macintosh as a serious contender for a development environment, that will mean a demand for information about programming within the environment-- There are other books on Mac OS X, but none that cover using Java with it, or on how to use it with the Cocoa Programming Interface-- This book will set the scene for future Wrox titles that will drill deeper into issues programmers want answers to on the Mac platformWROX Author Team is the author of 'Introducing .NET - James Conard - Paperback' with ISBN 9781861004895 and ISBN 1861004893.
