Struts 2 Design and Programming: A Tutorial ( Book recommendation )

There's one more book that I would like to recommend to you.
It is called, well I assume you've already guessed, Struts 2 Design and Programming: A Tutorial.

If you'd like to learn Struts2 framework, then I think this is a good place for you to start!

It is written for beginners who'd like to learn Struts2, but pros could also use it to refresh their memory on how some things could and should be done.

What thrilled me most when reading this book was the fact it was written exactly as I would like it to be...

Everything is explained very well, and there are a lot of useful examples...

You'll learn about MVC design pattern, struts2 tags, interceptors, input validations , type conversions, ajax in struts2 , tiles ,  some Tomcat settings, DAO design patterns and alot more...

I really enjoyed reading it.

C++ in plain english ( book recommendation )

Are you a C / C++ developer?

I was looking for something in my books today and decided to write this post for those who use C / C++ .
It’s about one particular book I own, probably my favorite...

Have you ever heard of a book “C++ in plain English”? Yes? No?
Well, if you ARE a C / C++ developer, than you definitely should get one!
I have one for several years, and I’m completely satisfied with it!

This is not a book that will help you learn C / C++ from the beginning.

It has a purpose like a dictionary: to help you find what some function, operator or class does and how to use it…

In the first part of the book you’ll find a complete overview of C++.
Complete syntax , operators , functions and classes of ANSI C++ are listed and explained in it.

The book itself helps you find what you need in two ways:

- By asking you what do you want to do , and than telling you which function , operator or class to use…
- By listing all functions , operators and classes with explanation what it does and when to use it…

The second part of the book is C++ in practice. Here you’ll find texts about OOP and all of it’s principles , and about many other things you use in C++ programming.

Great thing about all this is that entire book is indeed one big C++’s dictionary and a reminder , and because of that ( in my opinion ) professionals who work with C/C++ will be more satisfied with it than the beginners looking for a way to learn C/C++ .

I used it while working on several projects already, and every time I found an answer and a solution to a problem…
