DocFather Search Engine for Documentation

Print-friendly Version

Ever wanted to search through the Java Tutorial or Java 2 SDK documentation? This DocFather search facility does just that. It can be used over the Internet, and, alternatively, the applet version can be downloaded for local use.

DocFather search technology available in two forms: applet and servlet. The servlet version will work with any HTML browser, as it serves pure HTML pages. The applet version runs Java technology locally and works with the most common browsers.
