Bill - I recently purchased "Mastering Tomcat Development" (Wiley)by Peter Harrison and Ian McFarland, and "Professional Apache Tomcat" - WROX (9 authors). The Goodwill book was the first one I purchased, and it was good for initial setup and basic application deployment, however as Subir said once you get into anything difficult it is kind of useless. Out of the other two, I would recommend the Wiley book, excellent reference, but there are things covered in Wrox that aren't in Wiley - I am at a junior - intermediate developer level in Java, and I find both worth the money.....

You could learn as much from the Tomcat docs. -----Original Message----- From: Bill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 09, 2003 7:41 AM To: tomcat user Subject: Opinions of available Tomcat books I've been thinking about picking a copy of one of the Tomcat books out there and was looking for suggestions and comments. I noticed about 5 different pubs but I had a hard time finding anything about the books other than the evaluation systems the book sellers use. I saw John T. commented about the Wrox book, does anyone have one of the others? My particular concerns are that the book deal in length about integration with other technologies/products (e.g. Apache ) and that it cover up-to if not close-to the current version. -b -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
