Ant: The Definitive Guide, 2nd Edition16 reviews
Steven Holzner

O'Reilly Media, Inc., 2005

Got Me Going Quickly

+ The best book on Ant
+ Good Place To Start With Ant

Web research on Ant revealed a lot of explanations, but they were very hard to understand. And I didn't want to waste time scratching my head.

Programming Jakarta Struts, 2nd Edition76 reviews
Chuck Cavaness

O'Reilly Media, Inc., 2004

Thorough Review

The previous book I had on Struts did a poor job of... well, everything. It is called "The Struts Framework" and the main reason I bought it was because it was a manageable 150 pages long.

Open Sources 2.0: The Continuing Evolution3 reviews
Chris DiBona, Mark Stone, ...

O'Reilly Media, Inc., 2005

That book spent much space trying to argue that the open source movement was legitimate and here to stay. That argument has long ...

Quartz Job Scheduling Framework: Building Open Source Enterprise Applications4 reviews
Chuck Cavaness

Prentice Hall PTR, 2006

Whole new ideas I never considered...

+ Good book, but misleading description on back cover
+ What you need to know

One of the things I appreciate about working with Notes/Domino is the ability to schedule agents to run on certain events or on a schedule. But I always wondered how I might accomplish the same thing if I had stand-alone Java applications? This appears to be the answer... Quartz Job Scheduling ...
