Historical Java links
This is - by now - an outdatedl list of Java resources on the Internet. Don't use it to
find anything recent about Java. Most of this stuff was collected when I was actively
following Java, i.e. from 1995 until say 1997. I've occassionally cleaned up stale links,
but decided to keep this page around to see how "stable" the web actually
was/is. In a sense this is a historical snapshot.
Java - Language and tools
Basic material
- Java: Programming for the Internet Java resources at
JavaSoft. Information about the language, the API and Sun's implementations of the Java
Development Kit (JDK). Also offers press-releases, event announcements and information
about planned extensions and new API's. Most of the Java software and documentation can be
downloaded from there.

Packages
- THOUGHT Inc.
- MsqlJava Home Page MsqlJava is a Java class library that
allows applications or applets to access and manipulate mSQL databases. It implements most
of the mSQL C API. Those already familiar with developing mSQL clients should have little
difficulty adapting to this library. Others should refer to the MsqlJava tutorial and
documentation referenced below.
- HTTPConnection package This package is
meant to provide a complete HTTP client library. It currently implementes a large part of
the HTTP/1.0 protocol, including the request methods HEAD, GET, POST and PUT,
authorization handling and redirection requests.
- Java Class Warehouse The Java Class Warehouse was started
in January 1996, the idea being to provide a large repository of free, reusable,
user-contributed classes for Java.
- Method pointer /callback package Index
- Doug Lea's Collection Classes A great
collection of collection classes
- TclJava, an interface to allow
Tcl and Java to interact If you're interested in using Tcl as a scripting language for
Java, or defining Tcl commands in Java, this small interface provides these capabilities
for the Java 1.0 SDK, and Tcl7.4/Tk4.0 or Tcl7.5b2/Tk4.1b2. A reference manual is provided
in html format.
- Java SNMP package + applets JAVA SNMP Package
for developing SNMP applications and applets in JAVA.
- The Como
multi-user communication system Como provides an easy-to-use programming interface for
multi-user applications and games. For example, an irc-like chat applet under como is
about 100 lines of java code. Anyone who is interested can develop their own communication
applets.
- Tree browsing and editing packages
- FOTO Financial Object Resources
Ltd. have produced the initial version of FOTO, the Financial Object Toolkit, written
entirely in JavaTM.
