Description:
Eclipse is a new open-source, Java-based, extensible development platform designed for "nothing in particular" but everything in general. Because of its roots, it is currently most popular as a Java integrated development environment (IDE). Eclipse ships with plugins for writing and debugging Java code. Additional plugins for more advanced Java development, such as JSP/servlets, are available from third parties.
Speaker:
David Gallardo is an independent software consultant and author specializing in software internationalization, Java web applications, and database development. He has been a professional software engineer for over fifteen years and has experience with many operating systems, programming languages, and network protocols. He is also the author of "Java Oracle Database Development."

Basic Concepts
Basic Concepts Group
The 6 p.m. session is for learning basic concepts. Questions are encouraged. Come early and stay for the main presentation, which is focused on more advanced concepts. Registration is not required and there is no registration fee.
13 Aug Basic Concepts: JDOM Description: The good news is XML is vendor-neutral, platform-neutral, and programming language-indedepenent. The bad news is Xerces reflects these attributes and doesn't present a very Java-like interface. This isn't a criticism -- it's by design -- but JDOM offers the best of both worlds. This open source API, written by Jason Hunter and Brett McLaughlin, makes parsing XML a far more Java-friendly experience.
