“Ship It” and “Eclipse Distilled”

Two nice books.

Eclipse Distilled was surprisingly good. It’s short and sweet though it only talks about how to *use* Eclipse, not how to extend it. Very good for the purpose, recommended to anyone starting with Eclipse.

Ship It! was nice though I don’t feel I learned much. Great for someone who is either having trouble with their project and doesn’t know where to start, or for someone who wants a quick reference to best project development practices. Not to say that I already do all those nice practices, but I understand what they are, how to go about doing them, and now it’s just a question of actually doing them. No book is going to help with that.
