Course Description:

'' This fast paced five-day, comprehensive Java hands-on training class is geared for developers who have had prior programming language experience in a language such as C, C++ or Pascal This workshop provides and brief recap of Object -Oriented technologies and their relation to Java This is not an "exposure" class - we ensure that you will leave ready to program intermediate-level, Java applications using object-oriented programs in Java, using sound development techniques This Java training class has successfully provided C++ and other OO developers the skills needed to program Java
You Will Learn How To
Lesson objectives help students become comfortable with the course, and also provide a means to evaluate learning Upon successful completion of this course, students will:

Session: Essential Javaâ„?Programming
Javaâ„?Packages | Use the package keyword to define a class within a specific package | Explain the effects of the four levels of accessibility | Use the import keyword to declare references to classes in a specific package | Use the standard type naming conventions when creating packages, classes, and methods | Correctly execute a Java application class that is defined in a package | Fields and Variables | Initialize instance fields to default values | Distinguish between instance fields and method variables within a method | Initialize method variables prior to use | Explain the difference between the terms field and variable | List the default values for instance fields of type String, int, double, and boolean | Name the keyword used to create constants in Java | Enums, Static Methods and Fields | Create static fields in a class | Explain one use of static fields | Create static methods in a class | Explain one benefit of static fields | Understand the concept of a static import | Appreciate enums | Explain the syntax used to reference static fields and methods

Session: Advanced OO Programming
Specializing in a Subclass | Construct a class that extends another class | Correctly implement equals and toString | Write constructors that pass initialization data to the parent constructor as appropriate | Use instanceof to verify the class type of an object reference | Override subclass methods and use the super keyword to leverage behaviors in the parent | Safely cast references to a more refined type | Inheritance and Polymorphism | Write a subclass with a method that overrides a method in the superclass | Group objects by their common supertype | Utilize polymorphism by correctly invoking subclass method implementations through superclass references | Safely cast a supertype reference to a valid subtype reference | Use the final keyword on methods and classes to prevent overriding through subclassing | Interfaces and Abstract Classes | Define supertype contracts using interfaces | Define supertype contracts using abstract classes | Implement concrete classes using interfaces | Implement concrete classes using abstract classes | Explain one advantage of interfaces over abstract classes | Explain one advantage of abstract classes over interfaces | Generics | Understand what generics are | Understand how to create generic classes Understand how te create generic methods | Understand generic wildcards Understand how to use generics

Exceptions
Handling Exceptions | Define a try/catch block that allows methods that throw exceptions to be called | Correctly implement try/catch blocks for methods which throw multiple exceptions | Name the exception supertype which is not checked for by the compiler | Correctly implement a method which throws exceptions | Correctly override a method which throws exceptions | Throwing and Developing Exceptions | Understand how How to throw exceptions | Define your own application exceptions | Introduce the assert keyword

Collections
Understand the different types of collections in the J2SE | Understand the difference between collection interfaces and collection implementations | For each collection type, understand its usage | Use ArrayList to maintain a list of data elements | Use Iterator to search elements of a collection | Use methods of List to access sublists | Appreciate the extended for-loop for iterating over a collections | Appreciate how generics ease the development of (type-safe) collection | Sort and shuffle elements in a list | Create read-only collections from standard | Write a Comparator to provide custom sorting | Create your own collection class

Multithreading
Create and run a threaded class using both Thread and Runnable | Explain one advantage of implementing Runnable over subclassing Thread | Use thread synchronization to guarantee data integrity in a multithreaded application | Use object synchronization to allow multiple threads to work cooperatively on a shared set of data

Coding Standards
JavaDoc | Understand how to document your code | Understand the different JavaDoc tags | create HTML-based Java API documentation | Jar-files | Introduce the different types of jar-files | Create a jar-file ...''
