  • An overview of the main properties, including of:
    • user interface elements;
    • how to get and set focus;
    • of communication mechanisms in the API;
    • a discussion of design considerations for the API (e.g. pointers to external sources of information on accessibility guidance related to using the API);
    • information on extending the API (and where this is appropriate);
    • an introduction to the programming interface of the API (including pointers to external sources of information);
    • an introduction to the Java Access Bridge for Windows and the Java Access Bridge for GNOME.

It will provide this information as an introduction to the Java API to assist:

  • IT system level developers who create custom controls and/or interface to them;
