Other than the first few trival examples in the first chapter, the authors made very little effort to ensure you could run and use the examples in this book.


The downloadable build files contain hard-coded paths to the author's personal directory structure. You'll need to sort through the ANT build files and make a LOT of changes to make them actually work on your development system.


If you like/need working examples in a book, don't buy this one!
