Java and XML, 3rd Edition, shows you how to cut through all the hype about XML and put it to work. It teaches you how to use the APIs, tools, and tricks of XML to build real-world applications. The result is a new approach to managing information that touches everything from configuration files to web sites. After two chapters on XML basics, including XPath, XSL, DTDs, and XML Schema, the rest of the book focuses on using XML from your Java applications. This third edition of Java and XML covers all major Java XML processing libraries, including full coverage of the SAX, DOM, StAX, JDOM, and dom4j APIs as well as the latest version of the Java API for XML Processing (JAXP) and Java Architecture for XML Binding (JAXB). The chapters on web technology have been entirely rewritten to focus on the today's most relevant topics: syndicating content with RSS and creating Web 2.0 applications. You'll learn how to create, read, and modify RSS feeds for syndicated content and use XML to power the next generation of websites with Ajax and Adobe Flash. Topics include:
<ul>
<li>The basics of XML, including DTDs, namespaces, XML Schema, XPath, and Transformations</li>
<li>The SAX API, including all handlers, filters, and writers</li>
<li>The DOM API, including DOM Level 2, Level 3, and the DOM HTML module</li>
<li>The JDOM API, including the core and a look at XPath support</li>
<li>The StAX API, including StAX factories, producing documents and XMLPull</li>
<li>Data Binding with JAXB, using the new JAXB 2.0 annotations</li>
<li>Web syndication and podcasting with RSS</li>
<li>XML on the Presentation Layer, paying attention to Ajax and Flash applications</li>
</ul>
If you are developing with Java and need to use XML, or think that you will be in the future; if you're involved in the new peer-to-peer movement, messaging, or web services; or if you're developing software for electronic commerce, Java and XML will be an indispensable companion.

If you're interested in JRuby, you probably don't need a tutorial on Ruby, Rails, or Java -- you just need to know how to get things done. This Cookbook offers practical solutions for using the Java implementation of the Ruby language, with targeted recipes for deploying Rails web applications on Java servers, integrating JRuby code with Java technologies, developing JRuby desktop applications with Java toolkits, and more. Using numerous reusable code samples, JRuby Cookbook shows you how to:
<ul>
<li>Install and update JRuby on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux, and IDEs such as NetBeans and Eclipse</li>
<li>Package and deploy Rails apps on Java Servlet containers and Java EE application servers, including JBoss, Tomcat, and GlassFish</li>
<li>Integrate Ruby and Rails applications with popular Java EE technologies such as JMS, JMX, JPA, Spring, and Hibernate</li>
<li>Develop desktop and client applications with cross-platform Java UI technologies and toolkits such as Swing, SWT, and Java 2D</li>
<li>Maximize the flexibility of your testing and build environment, using both existing Java-based tools such as Ant and Maven and newer Ruby-based tools such as Rake, Raven, and Buildr</li>
</ul>
The JRuby interpreter combines Ruby's simplicity and ease of use with Java's extensive libraries and technologies, a potent blend that opens new possibilities for Ruby, Rails, and Java. This Cookbook helps you take full advantage of JRuby's potential. "The JRuby Cookbook is an excellent book for any polyglot who is trying to bridge the gap between Java and Ruby. It provides solutions to specific problems developers face in both their development and testing environments, along with the applications they're building."-- Bob McWhirter, Research &amp; Prototyping, Red Hat Middleware
