Low Quality Printing and Binding The content of this book is very good with plenty of explanations and examples in Java and C++. My biggest complaint is that the book looks like the pages were printed using a cheap laser printer and then glued together in a very poor binding. Pages in my copy are already starting to come loose after only a month of use. | ||
Great Book This book is great for beginners in CORBA, however you have to be a little more than advanced in JAVA or C++ to understand the underlying material. It provides good examples and I figured out how to better manage my IDL files/functions. | ||
Great CORBA book for Java Developers As a Sr. Java developer, I was looking for a good CORBA book with a Java slant. Until I found this one, I wasn't having much luck. Look no further. There are lots and lots of examples in Java (and C++). I've only read 100 pages, but so far, I really like this book. Money well spent. | ||
Decent It's a pretty good book, though, not really comparable to "Advanced CORBA programming with C++". If you really want a good CORBA reference book get Henning and Vinoski's book. The best thing about this book is that it also includes Java which makes it a pretty good buy. Not all of the code is available electronically on the book's website which can make it cumbersome if you want to actually try to run some of examples.... | ||
Not my cup of tea. I am not sure why this book gets such good reviews. I have read most of it (from front to back) and found myself skipping alot towards the end. Like you'd imagine, by doing both C++ and Java examples it ends up covering neither well. If Bolton absolutely had to have examples in both languages, I think he would have done better by splitting it up into two books and then going into the level of detail that Henning and Vinoski do in their seminal book. It's a bit ridiculous to buy a book this size and still feel like you are not getting enough information. The main selling point that it has is it includes information on later CORBA features (like Components and Objects by Value) that aren't in other books. If you REALLY want to understand what is going on, go with the Advanced Corba Programming with C++, though it is starting to show its age a bit. | ||
