Java/400 Introduction (Audio Training)

Course Description:
AS/400 Java Introduction is a self-paced audiocassette course specifically designed to bring experienced AS/400 programmers up to speed with the Java language. The course presumes no prior Java experience and guides students through the process of downloading the Java Development Kit, configuring it on the PC, accessing documentation, compiling and running Java programs, deploying applets on the AS/400 Web server, installing the AS/400 Toolkit for Java, and accessing DB2/400 database files.

Programming examples illustrate the important, basic, object-oriented programming concepts that present a hurdle to many experienced programmers. The course focuses on building practical GUI interfaces in applets to access AS/400 database files.
