Eben makes good suggestions as well. The only reason why you might want to consider avoiding them is because there is just so much information in them, you may find yourself wading through them just to find what you want (This is which is what makes Java Cookbook so good - it's very at-your-fingertips for the basic questions. That, in conjunction with the detail in Volume 1 is enough to pass the
test, I believe.)
Actually I may be missing JTable in there.
We're just providing two opinions. I'm sure you'll figure out the right thing to do.
