OptionsCity’s lead developer, Freddy Guime, has co-authored and published an 800-page volume of solutions for newly-released Java 7, aptly titled Java 7 Recipes: A Problem-Solution Approach, a must-have for any Java developer looking to keep current. This book differs from other Java instructional texts in that it skips convoluted rhetoric and even the discussion of the Java language itself and jumps right into the answers. Java 7 Recipes works to eliminate the proverbial “too many cooks in the kitchen” dilemma and presents straight-forward problem-solution exercises suitable for beginning to intermediate level Java developers.

While honing in on the latest techniques and features available in Java 7, this book will also teach you how to:

    - Develop Java SE applications using the latest in Java SE technology

    - Create great-looking user interfaces with Java Swing and Java FX 2.0

    - Build web-based applications around Java Servlet technology

    - Generate graphics and work with media such as sound and video

    - Implement web services and applications to invoke them

    - Exploit the power of XML from within your Java applications
