Thanks to all who responded with leads and advice! That gives me plenty to
go on now which is much appreciated.

I also would suggest Bruce Eckle's "Thinking in Java" - it's in the
4th edition now, but on his website (http://www.mindviewinc.com/Index.php)
all the previous editions are available for free download, and Java hasn't
changed that much since he had version 3 out. The book is written for

I'd second this. In many ways, the strength of Java is the same

I also find the online API docs (which you can download) to be very useful.

My Java book reading was several years ago. These days I just use a
safari.oreilly.com subscription and read whatever speaks to what I need to
know at the moment. If you need OO training, I liked Thinking in Java
(online book by Bruce Eckel). People generally like the "Head Start, Java"
book,
for java, I like capachino in a table mug or latte in a travel mug.
But Ethiopian and Kenyan and South American beans can be nice too, I
don't hardly insist on javanese beans.
(Java is slower than C++ and uglier than SmallTalk. Small teams build
more faster, hows that working out?)

That time has finally come for me that all good perl hackers dread -- being
forced to code in Java. Most Java tutorials, websites, and books seem to
target novice programmers. Anyone know of a condensed, quick reference or
site for Java for those with plenty of OO coding experience in perl ?
