Hibernate in Action

• Paperback: 408 pages
• Publisher: Manning Publications; 1 edition (August 1, 2004)
• Language: English
• ISBN-10: 193239415X

Hibernate practically exploded on the Java scene. Why is this open-source tool so popular? Because it automates a tedious task: persisting your Java objects to a relational database. The inevitable mismatch between your object-oriented code and the relational database requires you to write code that maps one to the other. This code is often complex, tedious and costly to develop. Hibernate does the mapping for you.

Not only that, Hibernate makes it easy. Positioned as a layer between your application and your database, Hibernate takes care of loading and saving of objects. Hibernate applications are cheaper, more portable, and more resilient to change. And they perform better than anything you are likely to develop yourself.

Hibernate in Action carefully explains the concepts you need, then gets you going. It builds on a single example to show you how to use Hibernate in practice, how to deal with concurrency and transactions, how to efficiently retrieve objects and use caching.

The authors created Hibernate and they field questions from the Hibernate community every day–they know how to make Hibernate sing. Knowledge and insight seep out of every pore of this book.

What’s Inside
- ORM concepts
- Getting started
- Many real-world tasks
- The Hibernate application development process

About the Author
A member of the core Hibernate developer team, Christian Bauer maintains the Hibernate documentation and website. He is a senior software engineer in Frankfurt, Germany. Gavin King is the Hibernate founder and principal developer. He is a J2EE consultant based in Melbourne, Australia.

• Publisher: Prentice Hall PTR; 1 edition (March 6, 2007)
• Language: English
• ISBN-10: 0132198576

Master the Linux Tools That Will Make You a More Productive Programmer

Linux comes with an extraordinary collection of power tools for C and C++ developers. The Linux Programmer’s Toolbox helps you leverage all that power and productivity–without mastering endless syntax options, tracking down hard-to-find documentation, or reading kernel source code. John Fusco systematically illuminates today’s best open source tools, explaining which to choose, where to find them, how to use them, and why you’d want to.

You’ll start by walking through installing, patching, and managing software development tools on your Linux system. Next, you’ll discover the right tools to solve real-world problems at every stage of your project, from coding to revision control, debugging to performance optimization. Fusco’s concise, practical examples are designed for clarity–and easy modification to your needs.

Coverage includes

• Maximizing productivity with editors, revision control tools, source code browsers, and “beautifiers”

• What programmers should know about the kernel: interpreting what your tools are telling you

• Understanding processes–and the tools available for managing them

• Debugging IPC with shell commands: signals, pipes, sockets, files, and IPC objects

• Optimizing program code with sar, vmstat, iostat, and other tools

• Tracing and resolving application bottlenecks with gprof and valgrind

• Using printf, gdb, and other essential debugging tools

• Streamlining and automating the documentation process

• Finding help, solutions, and workarounds when you need them

• Publisher: Prentice Hall PTR; Pap/Cdr edition (June 26, 2006)
• Language: English
• ISBN-10: 0131872494

The Only Official Best-Practice Guide to Qt 4.1 Programming

Using Trolltech’s Qt you can build industrial-strength C++ applications that run natively on Windows, Linux/Unix, Mac OS X, and embedded Linux–without making source code changes. With this book Trolltech insiders have written a start-to-finish guide to getting great results with the most powerful version of Qt ever created: Qt 4.1.

Using C++ GUI Programming with Qt 4 you’ll discover the most effective Qt 4 programming patterns and techniques as you master key technologies ranging from Qt’s model/view architecture to Qt’s powerful new 2D paint engine. The authors provide readers with unparalleled insight into Qt’s event model and layout system. Then, using realistic examples, they introduce superior techniques for everything from basic GUI development to advanced database and XML integration.

• Includes new chapters on Qt 4’s model/view architecture and Qt’s new plugin support, along with a brief introduction to Qtopia embedded programming

• Covers all Qt fundamentals, from dialogs and windows to implementing application functionality

• Introduces best practices for layout management and event processing

• Shows how to make the most of Qt 4’s new APIs, including the powerful new 2D paint engine and the new easy-to-use container classes

• Contains completely updated material in every chapter

• Presents advanced Qt 4 techniques covered in no other book, from creating both Qt and application plugins to interfacing with native APIs

• Contains an in-depth appendix on C++/Qt programming for experienced Java developers

The accompanying CD-ROM includes the open source edition of Qt 4.1.1 for Windows, Mac, Linux, and many Unixes, as well as MinGW, a set of freely available development tools that can be used to build Qt applications on Windows, and also the source code for the book’s examples.
