This is an excellent book, indeed (Eckels books are always excellent),
but I think the Java tutorial is enough if u know something about Java
or other Programming languages. I wouldn't recommend a book on JBuilder
2 (same as with C++ Builder) because the IDE is easy to use and all you
need to know is Java.
The help system is crap for topical use, sure, but the help is excellent
(well, it is not too bad) if you really read it. If you know Java it is
enough to understand JBCL and the rest of the JavaBeans that come with
JBuilder.
