Summary: Best Book on SCJD Available
Comment: I recommend this book because I found it to be valuable in helping me to pass the Sun Certified Java Developer (SCJD) Exam with a perfect score (400/400).

This is simply the best book available for those working on the SCJD Exam. Alain Trottier's "Java 2 Developer Exam Cram 2," is a distant second. Those are the only two books available that cover this exam in an in-depth manner. Books that attempt to cover both the Sun Certified Java Programmer (SCJP) and SCJD exams generally seem to do a good job of covering the programmer's exam, but are significantly less comprehensive when it comes to the developer's exam.

This book develops a sample project that is analogous to the project required for the SCJD examination. The complete source code is available for downloading from the publisher. The design and implementation issues explored in the sample project are similar to those required in order to successfully complete the exam. Those expecting to download the sample project, make a few cosmetic alterations, and upload the result as their exam submission will be disappointed. On the other hand, those who feel they would benefit from seeing what a complete solution to a similar problem looks like, and who would like some specific guidance about how to approach the various issues surrounding the project will be happy to have this book.

Another nice feature of this book is that it provides links to some other very helpful resources. The most useful of these is http://www.javaranch.com, an excellent Java site that provides an indispensable developer certification discussion forum for those working on the SCJD. It's the best place to go with your SCJD questions. Mehran (Max) Habibi, one of the authors of this book, is a contributor to that discussion forum.

Summary: An Excellent Book for the SCJD Exam and Java2 v1.4
Comment: "The Sun Certified Java Developer Exam with J2SE 1.4" is an in-depth how-to book on completing the SCJD Exam. This is not merely an overview; the authors designed a project similar to the SCJD exam I received and thoroughly explained how to complete the exam, from making the database thread-safe to creating the network server (covering both sockets and RMI) to developing the GUI client framework. In addition, this book also covers the new features of the Java 1.4 platform, including the Logging, NIO, and Regular Expression APIs. Even if you never used Threads, Sockets, RMI, or Swing, this book will teach you how with clear and concise details before applying the concepts to the applied project. If you plan on taking the Sun Certified Java Developer Exam, or you would like to learn the new features of Java 1.4, this book is for you. Using this book, I passed this exam earning 139/155 points (89.6%).

Summary: Best book for SCJD exam
Comment: I believe that this is the best book for SCJD exam. I am working on the assignment now and use this book as a reference.

Authors have explained all the facets of the assignment with an example that is similar to the exam project. The chapter on Threading is awesome and in my opinion it is must for any one taking the exam
