I have this Java 1 book but is it outdated. Is Java 2 that much advanced. If i learn Java 1 can I learn Java 2. Is the syntax the same and the structure and is Java 2 just more classes
 
Java 2 is similar to java 1.1 but there are a lot of differences when compared to 1.0. Mostly changes to the UI code, I think. It's been a while...
 
Java 1.2 = Java 2

Biggest change from 1.0 to 1.2 is the addition of the Swing API
which is a better set of User Inteface routines than the AWT
(Abstract Windowing Toolkit) that was the only thing available
in 1.0. The AWT is still available in Java 2. Syntax is still
the same. Most whatever you learn for 1.0 will be applicable to
Java 2. There's probably just better ways of doing things in
Java 2 since there are many many more APIs (libraries of extra
functions) available.
 
Java1.2 contains everything in Java1.1 and all the Swing classes that make Java GUI programing easier and more powerful.
