....and then you might want to download the docs so that you can access them locally. My home ----> visit me for Java and Data Warehousing resources

The SUN documentation API has 2 levels to get to the methods.
1. Click on a package and then the class within that package.
2. Click on a class(left frame in the browser), this is a complete list of all the classes.
Once you have selected a class or Interface, you will see all the methods, Constructors, Fields, etc. for that class. All public methods are what we call the Public interface and any other class can call that method. Static Methods can be called by just using the Class name and no reference as an object.
Notice that each class shows a hierarchy of what classes it inherits from. It also lists all the other methods that it automatic inherits from these classes.
One of the biggest mistakes beginning Java programmers make is to not look at the methods that are inherited into a class. Many great methods are available to you, just by looking at all listed for a class.
Good luck

If you use a full IDE with your Java programming, such as JBuilder, it comes with the API methods embedded in a tree form. You can expand on packages, classes, etc. to see the original code used by Sun with their developement. You can not change the code, but you can view it and read their comments.
There is also okay books online with the IDE showing examples, tutorials, and documentation. Unfortunately, it is slow running.
