Title: Disappointing!
Review: Debugging Java is a disappointing read for me. This book seems to be a general book about debugging, while trying hard to introduce some elements of Java.Debugging Java seems to have some glaring errors, For example, in P150------------------------------------------------------------str1 = "ABC";str2 = "ABC";System.out.println(str1 == str2);The above prints false, because str1 is not str2 regardless of contents.------------------------------------------------------------Are you sure???The book also spend another chapter talking about using MS Word as a good specialized editors. Hur ... which programmer would use MS Word as their editor?Appendix A lists some resources for Java, eg. IDE, debugging tools etc. This took up 30 pages. No wonder the book is so thick ...By far, this is the most disappointing book I have read. :(
Is the review positive or negative?
