Customer Reviews

Clear and Concise

A wonderfully pragmatic approach to Oracle's implementation of the SQLJ standard. I really appreciated the focus on Oracle Object Types and Collections. Concepts are addressed with just the right amount of theory and examples. I've read alot of animal books and this is one of the best. I know I sound like the author's brother writing this review, but this book really is awesome.

Great book on SQLJ

This book is a great read, and I was particularly impressed with the Oracle9i SQLJ features. I also liked the overall structure of the book: the author really knows his stuff, and writes in an easy to understand style.According to the preface, it was also technically reviewed by the SQLJ team at Oracle, and the writer works at Oracle, so you feel like your getting the inside info.

Another top notch book from O'Reilly

I just got this book, and it rocks! I've just started learning SQLJ (I heard about it from a friend), and I was able to going with it quickly using this book. I can't wait to get to the advanced stuff.

I like this book

I was able to be productive with SQLJ after just 2 days with this book. I found it easy to follow and I was able to download and use the examples from the O'Reilly website.

I loved this book

I've been using SQLJ for some time now, and there's no question SQLJ is going to be THE way to access an Oracle database using Java - SQLJ is a lot easier to use than JDBC.This book introduces the subject of SQLJ and Oracle in a well organized manner, and also covers the advances features like including SQLJ in Enterprise JavaBeans. This book even covers the new Oracle9i features.Up to this point, I was frustrated by the lack of decent books on SQLJ. One of the things I really liked about this book is that the programs and database scripts actually work!If you want to learn SQLJ, this is the ONLY book worth buying.
