help-doc.htmlNO FRAMES How This API Document Is Organized
This API (Application Programming Interface) document has pages corresponding to the items in the navigation bar, described as follows.
Package
Each package has a page that contains a list of its classes and interfaces, with a summary for each. This page can contain four categories:
Interfaces (italic)ClassesExceptionsErrorsClass/Interface
Each class, interface, inner class and inner interface has its own separate page. Each of these pages has three sections consisting of a class/interface description, summary tables, and detailed member descriptions:
Class inheritance diagramDirect SubclassesAll Known SubinterfacesAll Known Implementing ClassesClass/interface declarationClass/interface description
Inner Class SummaryField SummaryConstructor SummaryMethod Summary
Field DetailConstructor DetailMethod DetailEach summary entry contains the first sentence from the detailed description for that item. The summary entries are alphabetical, while the detailed descriptions are in the order they appear in the source code. This preserves the logical groupings established by the programmer.
Tree (Class Hierarchy)
There is a 
overview-tree.htmlClass Hierarchy  page for all packages, plus a hierarchy for each package. Each hierarchy page contains a list of classes and a list of interfaces. The classes are organized by inheritance structure starting with java.lang.Object. The interfaces do not inherit from java.lang.Object.When viewing the Overview page, clicking on "Tree" displays the hierarchy for all packages.When viewing a particular package, class or interface page, clicking "Tree" displays the hierarchy for only that package.Deprecated API
The 
deprecated-list.htmlDeprecated API  page lists all of the API that have been deprecated. A deprecated API is not recommended for use, generally due to improvements, and a replacement API is usually given. Deprecated APIs may be removed in future implementations.Index
The 
index-all.htmlIndex  contains an alphabetic list of all classes, interfaces, constructors, methods, and fields.Prev/Next
These links take you to the next or previous class, interface, package, or related page.
Frames/No Frames
These links show and hide the HTML frames.  All pages are available with or without frames.
Serialized Form
Each serializable or externalizable class has a description of its serialization fields and methods. This information is of interest to re-implementors, not to developers using the API. While there is no link in the navigation bar, you can get to this information by going to any serialized class and clicking "Serialized Form" in the "See also" section of the class description.
This help file applies to API documentation generated using the standard doclet.
