Synopsis

Best-selling authors Patrick Chan, Rosanna Lee, and Doug Kramer provide a timely 1.2 companion book to The Java Class Libraries, Second Edition, Volume 1. Used together, these books provide complete documentation for the Volume 1 set of packages. Important new packages have been added, including: java.lang.reflect, and java.util.jar. The Supplement includes complete documentation for all packages, classes, and members that are new or have been changed. Material that has not been changed from Java 1.1 and Java 1.2 is not covered in the supplement.

Moreover, the supplement features an integrated index that covers both books.
