Updates and Breaking News

In the fast-moving world of Java, it’s an effort to publish a book that isn’t out of date by the time it reaches store shelves. Most of what I’ve written about in this book seems fairly stable.

Café au Lait

Of particular interest will be the Java I/O page at http://metalab.unc.edu/javafaq/books/javaio/. I’ll post corrections and updates to this book there as necessary.
