Download Java 2 SDK Docs - HTML Format

• To download the HTML documentation, click the "Download" button below.

Warning about tar files: The download choices have identical documentation content and differ only in the compression format, so "theoretically" any choice should work on any OS. However, due to tool imcompatibilites, this is not entirely true. Do not download the COMPRESS tar or GZIP tar formats and try to install them with WinZip or a non-Solaris version of tar (such as GNU tar). About 10 of the included files have paths that are 100 characters or longer, and these programs will not install them correctly. For more details, see the doc install troubleshooting tips.



• Installation Instructions - Basically, download and unbundle the documentation in the same directory as the Java 2 SDK software.
