The Java
Class Library
M
In previous editions of this book, this appendix included abbreviated reference
material for the Java API Specification, including several classes and interfaces
from the Java standard class library. This appendix is still available at
ftp://ftp.aw.com/cseng/authors/lewis/jss6/ for anyone who would like to download and make use of it.
A better solution, however, is to get familiar with the official and complete
online API documentation available at java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/. It contains a description of every class, interface, and method available to every Java
development environment.
We encourage you to spend some time getting familiar with the organization
and layout of that documentation. It is a valuable tool to rely on during program
development.
