I'm totally a newbie-programmer and I've just joined to Java World, so I need a place to hear pros talking about it.
With .NET, I have the dotnetkicks.com, dotnetshoutout.com, etc.
So, anyone know something like that for Java?
Try http://www.javaranch.com. It is aimed at helping people learn Java and earning certifications.
Also consider http://TheServerSide.com and http://java.dzone.com/ .
Yes you have its Stackoverflow.com Where you are currently asking this question.
There was forums.java.sun.com which was a pretty vibrant forum (not really news, but mostly help). It was integrated into the Oracle Forums which reduced its activity quite a lot ('though many former Java forum members are around here).
For news-ish stuff about (server-side) Java The Server Side isn't too bad.
You might be looking for something like http://www.java-forums.org/ or http://javaprogrammingforums.com/ . Google for java forum to find similar sites.
Good Java community and resource

At first i know it exist one official documantion about WebSphere APi:
http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/wasinfo/v8r5/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.ibm.websphere.javadoc.doc%2Fweb%2Fapidocs%2Fcom%2Fibm%2Fwebsphere%2Fmanagement%2FAdminClient.html
But that isnt a good one. It explains very few things and does help me just a little.
Iam searching for a good book or good paper wich explain all function, packeg, classes in a good way.
Can anybody help me?
Greetings
On Infocentre (the link you provided), the APIs are usually provided in the References subsection, for each product. I don't think you'll find a more complete list than that anywhere else.
If you mean resources on WebSphere Application Server, you can try searching for that on IBM Redbooks, e.g.:
http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/pdfs/sg247957.pdf
Devworks also has quite a few papers explaining concepts/providing examples for IBM products.
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/websphere/library/
Additionally i definition for MBeans in WAS 8.x !
Does anybody know ?
Something like this : http://my.safaribooksonline.com/book/web-development/websphere/0131446045/websphere-version-5-run-time-mbeans/app02lev1sec1
This Page isnt aktual.
I cant find it on the official documentation.
Thanks
I hope my question is not too vague but I'm looking for more info about checkpointing in Java. I have to generate a big searchtree of which i'd like to be able to resume calculation after the program got interrupted (for example after a sudden reboot etc). Therefore I need checkpointing. I find very few documentation about that and I get the impression a lot of developement has stopped in the mid-90s.
So far I've found a library called Padmig, but I hope alternatives are available? Can anyone point me into the right direction with some info about checkpointing for java?
What you describe sounds a lot like object prevalence. In Java there is a library called prevayler that been around since 2002. I haven't used it before, but when it came our there was a lot of fuzz about it and had quite a few interesting concepts.
Java doesn't support first-class continuations, so this is impossible. juancn's answer about object prevalence might help you, though.
Alternatively, if you're not tied to Java, you might use a language which does support first-class continuations, such as Lisp.
I have just finished up my first book on Java training and I think I am getting closer to understanding. I am currently looking for some good resources to improve my java understanding.
So far I have read through http://mobile.tutsplus.com/tutorials/android/java-tutorial/ however I am still not clear.
what is the best way to find out all the possible methods that relate to an Android Object. Is there something in eclipse which can make it clear?
Please can you point me in the right direction? and giveing an example that a beginner would understand would be wonderful and much appreciated!
Well, I guess the best way to find any method or class is to look in the Android API which can be found here:
http://developer.android.com/reference/packages.html
And this is the Java API which works the same way:
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/
You can search for classes and find which methods and properties they have.
You should have direct access to the API from the Eclipse code completion: http://showmedo.com/videotutorials/video?fromSeriesID=6&name=IntroductionToEclipseWithJava2_JohnM
I would also reccomend WiBit.net for more tutorials on both Java and Android if you are a beginner. They have some awesome free material:
http://www.wibit.net/curriculum/courses/programming_java
TheNewBoston also have some nice tutorials on android where you can pick up more although they are not as good as the WiBit ones:

HI. I am a beginner/intermediate java programmer.I'd like to see codes of useful applications used in the real world. Could anyone tell me where to look for such source codes? thanks.
SourceForge has numerous open source projects which use Java in some way. On the first page you'll see a lot of popular software you've probably used before.
I would also recommend searching Google Code ( http://code.google.com/ ) for Java programs.
This last suggestion is a bit unorthodox, but have you considered competing at TopCoder.com? After the first competition round you have the option to look at others' code. The flip side is that you need to apply critical thinking - not everyone's solution will be correct, much less optimal! You can't get any more real-world than that.
Good luck!
thank you Arkaaito.
I found the google code website very confusing to search. I didn't get many relevant searches for Java when I typed "java source code" into the search box. I'll continue trying.
As for competiting on Topcoder.com, I am not good enough in programming java to do that...perhaps you could suggest more links for me to study from to improve my skills?
I enjoy java labs that build on my programming fundamentals :-)
cheers.
I think the subject pretty much covers it. I'm not a web programmer (I am a programmer), I'd like to write some play web apps, I don't really have a lot of spare time. So what's the quickest way to get up and running to play around with GWT?
I would say Google's GWT Quick Start. That said, learning some Java skills would be a good idea if you're not already familiar with the language.
The StockWatcher application tutorial covers pretty much step by step all you need to play around and get an idea of GWT as a beginner (provided you know a bit of JAVA).
This is part of the GWT Quick Start documentation (as mentioned also by someone else) where you can find loads of other examples and resources.
Pick an app that does something similar to what you want, and modify it piece by piece...
