Programming on LinuxWelcome to the home page for the book Java Programming on Linux, published by Macmillan Computer Publishing. We're here to help you get the most out of the book by providing current information, updates, links, downloads, and errata.
Java Programming on Linux is the first and, to date, only book devoted to the topic of using Java on Linux. You'll get some introduction to both technologies, but we're not out to duplicate the many fine Java and Linux books already out there: this book is unique in focusing on how you can use the two together. You may be surprised at how many options you have for developing and deploying in Java on Linux.

Feel free to follow any of these links to another Web site that has something to do with Linux. You will end up at a site that has nothing to do with the book or the author; it may be exciting and useful, boring and offensive, or in a language you cannot read - but it's almost certain to be somewhere you've never been before.
