Prerequisites

This course was created for programmers already familiar with the basic structure and syntax of the Java programming language, and who need to further expand this knowledge to developing complex, production-level applications. Delegates should be able to develop advanced Java applets, develop applications using C or C++, use object-oriented programming techniques, understand User Interface (UI) design, and understand basic TCP/IP communication Program with sockets or streams.
