Java Database Development with Oracle is a hands-on book for Java developers who want to learn how use Oracle and integrate it with their Java applications. It assumes an intermediate knowledge of Java and no knowledge of Oracle. This book is segmented into three parts. Part One begins by investigating how and why databases relate to object-oriented programming with Java. Introductory chapters on the Oracle database, SQL and other Oracle features, including its object-relational support, lay the groundwork for the chapters that follow. Part Two presents thorough coverage of the essential Java technologies for database programming, with chapters on SQLJ, JDBC and JDO (Java Data Objects). Part Three takes a higher-level view of application architecture and considers the role of Oracle in enterprise applications, particularly with regard to EJB (Enterprise Java Beans) and the J2EE framework. Annotation -- Provides an introduction to database design, including the essentials of SQL, to get Java programmers started with Oracle comfortably, confidently and quickly!-- Covers important Java database technologies, such as JDBC and JDO -- step-by-step, with examples.-- Covers both Oracle 8i and 91-including new 9i features, such as object-relational features, all highlighted with examples.

Written for intermediate Java programmers, the guide surveys the different SQL statements, the basic elements of PL/SQL, and the Oracle object types, then shows how to use SQLJ, JDBC, J2EE, enterprise JavaBeans (EJB), and Java data objects (JDO) to write Java programs that interact with a database procedurally.
