The first part of this talk gives an overview of the extensions and changes in Java now available in JDK 1.1:
  • Java language: inner classes, internationalization, and object serialization
  • Major extensions to the Abstract Windowing Toolkit (AWT) for writing UI's: lightweight components to allow more control and more sophistication in UI, and more general event handling model.
  • Security: signed applets and cryptographic API's
  • Distributed Computing: JDBC, RMI, and JavaBeans
  • We will briefly mention plans for enterprise and commerce extensions, and additional extensions such as the "Swing set".
The second part of this talk goes into more detail on language changes and on the new AWT event model. (Other talks give details on JDBC, security, and JavaBeans.)
