    Ant in Action


    Publisher: Manning Publications Company
    Author: Erik Hatcher
    ISBN: 193239480X
    Release Date: 15 July 2007

    eBook Description
    This second edition of a Manning bestseller has been revised and re-titled to fit the ‘In Action’ Series by Steve Loughran, an Ant project committer. Ant in Action introduces Ant and how to use it for test-driven Java application development. Ant itself is moving to v1.7, a major revision, at the end of 2006 so the timing for the book is right. A single application of increasing complexity, followed throughout the book, shows how an application evolves and how to handle the problems of building and testing. Reviewers have praised the book’s coverage of large-projects, Ant’s advanced features, and the details and depth of the discussion-all unavailable elsewhere.

    This is a major revision with the second half of the book completely new, including:

  • How to Manage Big projects
  • Library management
  • Enterprise Java
  • Continuous integration
  • Deployment
  • Writing new Ant tasks and datatypes

    The Symbian OS Architecture Sourcebook: Design and Evolution of a Mobile Phone OS (Symbian Press)


    Publisher: John Wiley and Sons
    Author: Ben Morris
    ISBN: 0470018461
    Release Date: 22 June 2007

    eBook Description
    The current Symbian Press list focuses very much on the small scale features of Symbian OS in a programming context. The Architecture Sourcebook is different.

    It’s not a how-to book, it’s a ‘what and why’ book. And because it names names as it unwinds the design decisions which have shaped the OS, it is also a ‘who’ book. It will show where the OS came from, how it has evolved to be what it is, and provide a simple model for understanding what it is, how it is put together, and how to interface to it and work with it. It will also show why design decision were made, and will bring those decisions to life in the words of Symbian’s key architects and developers, giving an insider feel to the book as it weaves the “inside story” around the architectural presentation.

    The book will describe the OS architecture in terms of the Symbian system model. It will show how the model breaks down the system into parts, what role the parts play in the system, how the parts are architected, what motivates their design, and how the design has evolved through the different releases of the system.

    Key system concepts will be described; design patterns will be explored and related to those from other operating systems. The unique features of Symbian OS will be highlighted and their motivation and evolution traced and described.

    The book will include a substantial reference section itemising the OS and its toolkit at component level and providing a reference entry for each component.
