This book was very helpful to me because it gave me real code and showed the SUN BDK beanbox tool being used to link JavaBeans. I thank the author for a generally accurate and error free book. Though not perfect, it is better than many Java and JavaBeans books. One thing I found somewhat irritating was that the makefile contents for the JAR utility were reproduced for each and every program. Soon I just skipped all of those; they wasted paper and room.Another irritant is that the author didn't show how to just use jar to wrap up the beans. You don't HAVE to use nmake. I was able to get along without it.I also found the 2nd person viewpoint writing style to be a little awkward (You do this, etc.) In fact, the style is a bit too wordy and drawn-out. Why can't anyone write a SHORT and terse Java book?!But overall, this was a very useful book and I'm glad I read it.
