Python Programming on WIN32

Help for Windows Programmers

Python is growing in popularity; based on download statistics, there are now over 450,000 people using Python, and more than 150,000 people using Python on Windows. Use of the language has been growing at about 40% per year since 1995, and there is every reason to believe that growth will continue.Despite Python's increasing popularity on Windows, Python Programming on Win32 is the first book to demonstrate how to use it as a serious Windows development and administration tool. Unlike scripting on Unix, Windows scripting involves integrating a number of components, such as COM or the various mail and database APIs, with the Win32 programming interface. While experienced Windows C++ programmers can find their way through the various objects, most peop...

Python Programming

With the Java Class Libraries

Python and Java are natural team-mates. Using Python together with the Java class libraries, developers at all levels can leverage Python's simplicity and Java's power together, building advanced Web and enterprise applications with remarkable speed and efficiency. Richard Hightower shows how, from start to finish. Using step-by-step examples, Hightower introduces the fundamentals of Python and object-oriented programming. You'll learn how to work with files, use Python's intrinsic functionality, and take advantage of Python's powerful string handling capabilities. Next, Hightower shows how to interface with Java APIs; how to build Swing graphical applications more easily with JPython; and, how to utilize SQL and JDBC to access enterprise data from P...

Bluetooth Application Programming with the Java APIs

Essentials Edition

Adoption of Bluetooth wireless technology has become ubiquitous in the last few years. One of the biggest steps forward is the standardization of Java APIs for Bluetooth wireless technology (JABWT). The latest updates to this standard is explained in detail in this book. The JABWT standard, defined by the JSR-82 Java Specification Request, supports rapid development of Bluetooth applications that are portable, secure, and highly-usable. Wireless device manufacturers have responded overwhelmingly to the JABWT specification by implementing JABWT applications in mobile phones and other personal wireless communications products. "Bluetooth Application Programming Essentials: Programming with the Java APIs" explains in detail how to write Blueto...
