 Application Programming Interface 

The Java platform comes with a large programming library or Application Programming Interface (API). When using an API call for the first time, we add a short summary description, tagged with an API icon. These descriptions are a bit more informal but also a little more informative than those in the official on-line API documentation.

Programs whose source code is included in the companion code for this book are listed as examples; for instance,

Example 5-8: WarehouseServer.java

You can download the companion code from http://www.phptr.com/corejava.
