    The Java Tutorials are practical guides for programmers who want to use the Java programming language

    to create applications. They include hundreds of complete, working examples, and dozens of lessons. Groups of related lessons are organize d into "trails". The Java Tutorials primarily describe features in Java SE 7. For best results, d ownload JDK 7. What's New The Java Tutorials are continuously updated to keep up with changes to the Java Platform and to incorporate feedback from our readers. Apart from fixing typos a nd errors, this update includes the following: This release of the tutorial corresponds to the 7u21 release of the JRE. The 7u21 release enables users to make more informed decisions before running Rich Internet Applications (RIAs) by prompting users for permission before an RIA is run. The prompt contains information about the certificate used to sign the app and the level of access requested by the app. Depending on the security setting in the Java Control Panel, some apps might be blocked from running. The tutorials were updated to reflect the recommendation that all RIAs be ru n from signed JAR files. A new page has been added to the Deployment trail on Us er Acceptance of RIAs. You may also want to refer to the lesson on Signing and V erifying JAR Files. The Deployment ebook (both mobi and epub formats) have been updated. Finally, all Java Web Start examples launched from within the tutorial are now signed and all applets run within the sandbox. As part of the ongoing Project Lambda work for Java SE 8, there is a new pag e on Method References that includes a new MethodReferencesTest.java example (wh ich requires the early access release of JDK 8 with Lambda support to compile). This new page is available online only. Another feature coming to Java SE 8 is the ability to invoke methods that us e the fork/join framework to sort arrays in parallel. The Arrays and Fork/Join p ages have been updated with information on manipulating arrays. This new materia l is available online only. The previous release of the tutorial included the following: An early access page on Lambda Expressions. As part of this work, the inform ation on Nested Classes, Anonymous Classes, and Local Classes have been updated and a new page on When to Use Nested Classes, Local Classes, Anonymous Classes, and Lambda Expressions has been added. All of this new material is available onl ine only. The Annotations page has been moved and expanded to be a full Annotations le sson. The new lesson includes information on Java SE 8 features: Type Annotation s, which can be used in conjunction with pluggable type systems for improved typ e checking, and Repeating Annotations. This early access lesson is available onl ine only. The lesson Service Providers for Internationalization includes the new secti on Installing a Custom Resource Bundle as an Extension, which shows you how to l oad resource bundles with service provider interfaces (SPIs). These interfaces e nable you to create applications that you can extend, through plug-ins or module s, without modifying their original code base. See the new section Creating Exte nsible Applications for more information. These new pages are currently availabl e online only. Trails Covering the Basics
