Title: RE: EJB naming conventions?

Actually it has 3.5 stars which is quite good for a book with 31 reviewers.  If you read the comments, it is mostly either 1-2 stars or 5 stars.  This usually indicates that the intended audience was not clearly conveyed.  Almost all the 1-2 stars were from people who were complaining, "but I already know this...."  As I recall from the introduction, it is geared toward beginning to intermediate developers (those who know the syntax).   As to your recommendation, Coad's book is an excellent book on design _not_ design patterns (ala PLOP or GoF).  Patterns in Java is a good book (well, the first one is at least), but covers a different set of information.  Coad's book is more like Java In Practice or Java 2 Performance and Design Idioms.     Erik (whose read just about every book on Java in print... :-)  ) -- Erik Huddleston, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Chief Architect, eCustomers.com Microsoft Java MVP -----Original Message----- From: Javier Borrajo [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 20, 1999 11:04 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: EJB naming conventions? As I recall, Peter Coad had a nice summary of the advantages of using the "I" prefix for interfaces in Java Design: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0139111816/qid=940430526/sr=1-15/002-0300451-4975441 From what I see at Amazon this book seems to have really terrible reviews... I like "Patterns in Java" by Mark Grand http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0471258393/o/qid=940435052/sr=2-1/002-1336309-1065062       Javier
