Re: Java for RPG Programmers, 2nd edition still useful ?

All good comments. John echoed my thoughts in that, as a lifer (30+ years)
RPG programmer, my perspective is a bit "hard-wired". I previously took a
shot at learning Java on my own, but that wasn't productive. I think the
OOP concept is a curve I need to master before Java really makes sense.

I have juuuust enough Java to be able to tweak RDi plugins, write
Android code to read the GPS and convert it to Maidenhead grid squares
and other assorted non-business stuff. When I tried learning Java on my
own, I was a dismal failure because my 'learning' was done in fits and
starts. It wasn't until I actually had a project in hand that the Java
way began to stick with me.
