e.g.
1. where can I find some books for "How to design and program a trading system in java/c++"?
You probably won't. Authors like to aim their books at large audiances. You will find books on general topics, like writing GUI's, designing client server systems or writing web apps, which will give you valuable information about particular technologies, but the application of those technologies is up to you.
2. where can I find some free open source program for FIX trading systems?
Go to Google and search for
"open source program for FIX trading systems"
