Description: The code presented in this book is painful to look at. For one thing, the author is not familiar with basic Java coding conventions and continues to use C conventions instead. In addition to not knowing proper coding conventions, this guy has no clue about writing Java UIs - the code listed in this book actually has Visual Cafe tags all over the place! As far as info regarding spiders/bots/aggregators - there is decent high level overview info in this book, but nothing for a real programmer. You will not learn how to build these things on your own, and the book relies on the helper libraries included on the cd-rom to accomplish anything. If you are hoping to build anything useful after purchasing this book, understand that you will only succeed if you include the com.heaton.* libraries included on the cd.
