Java Sun - J2SE

back *|* Timer sample *|* Web Cam sample *|* FTP sample

This was touted as the 'new' programming language ... write once, and run anywhere promised ... well it works, provided you are in a machine that sports the latest Sun Java-Virtual-Machine ... and most do, or will, if Sun has it way ... try - http://java.sun.com/ - to begin your journey ... ;=))

This is certainly an important technology ... but will EVERYBODY choose to use it? That is still the open question ...

While looking for some USB Web CAM control software, I ended up downloading, and installing, most of the following items ...

     533,786 CamWizard_install.zip
     952,716 camuni.zip
   3,887,781 install_usbor-1.0.0.exe
   5,218,242 jmf-2_1_1e-windows-i586.exe
     169,182 jmapps-src.zip
     265,179 sdm-1_2-windows-i586.zip
 122,346,122 jdk-1_5_0_03-nb-4_1-win.exe
  54,770,037 j2sdk-1_4_2_08-windows-i586-p.exe

And some 'sample' code ...
       8,568 SimplePlayerApplet.java
         399 HelloWorld.class
       9,468 TumbleItem.java
       2,380 ClickMe.java
       2,249 ClickMeApp.java
         461 Spot.java

These were some, non-java, no source, samples, NOT tried ...
   2,514,383 grabpack.zip
  19,703,432 eyespyfx_veo.EXE

Searching for help, is usually more finding the right words ... for example a Yahoo search for say 'java FileOutputStream' will yield a number of specific references on java.io ... but it is sometimes 'difficult' to 'remember' the magic words ;=)) here, on this topic, there is bountiful information - http://www.ao.net/~juang/IntroJava2/JavaIO/JavaIO.html ...
