HP-UX Programmer's Guide for Java 2

Table Of Contents
1 Introduction
Unless stated otherwise, the information in this Programmer's Guide applies to HP-UX,
PA-RISC, and HP-UX Itanium® Processor Family systems.
Java™, the programming language, creates a new paradigm of platform independence,
meaning that Java™ applications, once written, can be executed on any computer
system.
The HP-UX Programmer's Guide for Java™ 2 provides information on how to use the
HP-UX JDK and the HP-UX Java™ Runtime Environment for the Java™ 2 Platform to
develop or deploy performance-enhanced Java™ applications on HP servers series
rp5400, rp7400, rp8400, and superdome, and PA-RISC and Itanium based workstations.
It contains information on HotSpot options, HP-specific options and features,
suggestions and examples for allocating memory, how to use wdb to examine backtraces
in Java threads, code examples for using Java Native Interface, and more.
