Ant: The Definitive Guide, 2nd Edition 16 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. This book explained what Ant is and how it works in an approachable way without insulting my intelligence. The author obviously has a lot of experience ...

Programming Jakarta Struts, 2nd Edition 76 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. (Am I the only one tired of several hundred page tech books?)

Open Sources 2.0: The Continuing Evolution 3 reviews Chris DiBona, Mark Stone, ...

Quartz Job Scheduling Framework: Building Open Source Enterprise Applications 4 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 ...
