    Learning java by C++ programmer

    Hi,

    I am a C++ programmer with 5 yrs of experience. I wish to learn java
    as quickly as possible.

    Please tell me approximately how much time it can take an expert C++
    programmer to learn java. And what are the good books to start with?

    Thanks.

    If you're an expert C++ programmer - you should know how to learn a
    language - get a book - live in the API a while and code code code

      To follow up - sorry, I forgot to recommend a book,
      There are so many in so many different styles - and I have over 15 -
      Some books explain different parts of the language in different ways -
      I like Murach's book at www.murach.com
      and Savitch explains GUI programming very well in his books
      another book is coming on strong - and I like it also - Head First Java
