SL-275-SE6 --- Java Programming Language, Java SE 6

The Java Programming Language course provides students with a solid foundation for programming with Java, including: information about the syntax of the Java programming language

The Java Programming Language course provides students with a solid foundation for programming with Java, including: information about the syntax of the Java programming language; object-oriented programming with the Java programming language; creating graphical user interfaces (GUIs), exceptions, file input/output (I/O), and threads; and networking. Programmers familiar with object-oriented concepts can learn how to develop Java technology applications. The course features the Java Platform, Standard Edition 6 (Java SE 6) platform, and utilizes the Java SE Development Kit 6 (JDK 6) product. The students perform the course lab exercises using the NetBeans Integrated Development Environment (IDE).

* Create and edit text files using a text editor
* Understand object-oriented principles
* Be competent in creating programs in any programming language or have completed the SL-110-SE6
* Fundamentals of the Java Programming Language course.

Programmers who are interested in adding the Java programming language to their list of skills* Students who are preparing for the Oracle Certified Professional, Java SE 6 Programmer examination

Java Programming Language, Java SE 6 (SL-275-SE6) Content Details

Getting Started Examine Java technology Analyze a simple Java technology application Execute a Java technology application Object-Oriented Programming Define modeling concepts: abstraction, encapsulation, and packages Discuss Java technology application code reuse Define class, member, attribute, method, constructor, and package Use the access modifiers private and public as appropriate for the guidelines of encapsulation Invoke a method on a particular object Use the Java technology API online documentation Identifiers, Keywords, and Types Use comments in a source program Distinguish between valid and invalid identifiers Use the eight primitive types Define literal values for numeric and textual types Define the terms primitive variable and reference variable Declare variables of class type Construct an object using new and describe default initialization Describe the significance of a reference variable Expressions and Flow Control Distinguish between instance and local variables Describe how to initialize instance variables Recognize, describe, and use Java software operators Distinguish between legal and illegal assignments of primitive types Identify boolean expressions and their requirements in control constructs Recognize assignment compatibility and required casts in fundamental types Use if, switch, for, while, and do constructions and the labeled forms of break and continue as flow control structures in a program Arrays Declare and create arrays of primitive, class, or array types Explain why elements of an array are initialized Explain how to initialize the elements of an array Determine the number of elements in an array Create a multidimensional array Write code to copy array values from one array to another Class Design Define inheritance, polymorphism, overloading, overriding, and virtual method invocation Use the access modifiers protected and the default (package-friendly) Describe the concepts of constructor and method overloading Describe the complete object construction and initialization operation Advanced Class Features Create static variables, methods, and initializers Create final classes, methods, and variables Create and use enumerated types Use the static import statement Create abstract classes and methods Create and use an interface Exceptions and Assertions Define exceptions Use try, catch, and finally statements Describe exception categories Identify common exceptions Develop programs to handle your own exceptions Use assertions Distinguish appropriate and inappropriate uses of assertions Enable assertions at runtime   Collections and Generics Framework Describe the general purpose implementations of the core interfaces in the Collections framework Examine the Map interface Examine the legacy collection classes Create natural and custom ordering by implementing the Comparable and Comparator interfaces Use generic collections and type parameters in generic classes Refactor existing non-generic code Write a program to iterate over a collection Examine the enhanced for loop I/O Fundamentals Write a program that uses command-line arguments and system properties Examine the Properties class Construct node and processing streams, and use them appropriately Serialize and deserialize objects Distinguish readers and writers from streams, and select appropriately between them Console I/ O and File I/O Read data from the console Write data to the console Describe files and file I/O Building Java GUIs Using the Swing API Describe the JFC Swing technology Identify the Swing packages Describe the GUI building blocks: containers, components, and layout managers Examine top-level, general-purpose, and special-purpose properties of container Examine components Examine layout managers Describe the Swing single-threaded model Build a GUI using Swing components Handling GUI-Generated Events Define events and event handling Examine the Java SE event model Describe GUI behavior Determine the user action that originated an event Develop event listeners Describe concurrency in Swing-based GUIs and describe the features of the SwingWorker class GUI-Based Applications Describe how to construct a menu bar, menu, and menu items in a Java GUI Understand how to change the color and font of a component Threads Define a thread Create separate threads in a Java technology program, controlling the code and data that are used by that thread Control the execution of a thread and write platform-independent code with threads Describe the difficulties that might arise when multiple threads share data Use wait and notify to communicate between threads Use synchronized to protect data from corruption Networking Develop code to set up the network connection Understand TCP/IP Use ServerSocket and Socket classes to implement TCP/IP clients and servers
