Hi Folks - looking for recommendations for a beginners book on developing JavaBeans?

Happy to take baby steps at first but I want to be building simple beans pretty quickly.

Any suggestions (keep it clean :D )

Don’t know about books, there are a few on the market and from what I have read about is that they range from “execrable to excellent”, but you can check tutorials online, first go to the source:

There is also a list of some available tutorials on the net here:

Now the real difficulty with JavaBeans is not the Bean API itsel which is quite easy, but the complexity of Swing, especially in multithread environment. If you are experience with Swing, fine, otherwise, that’s what you should learn about first.

Hope this helps,
