Hi guys,
You can read the following books and may serve as a
reference guide while you are doing the assignment.
Core
Java volume 1 and Volume 2
Graphics JAVA Mastering JFC.
You don't need to read the whole book. Read only chapters
which are needed to compelete assingment such as
RMI
Swing classes
sockets
I/O
LayoutManager
and etc...
I read relevent sections from the follwing certification books just for reference.
Java 2 Certification - Jamie Jaworski
Java 2 Exam Guide - Barry Boone/william Stanek
And don't forget to read RMI tutorials and archives at
SUN site (if you plan to use RMI in your assingment)
This is just my opinion and that's what I did to compelete
assginement.
