This article provides an overview of the new features and enhancements in the Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition 1.4 (J2SE), and shows you how to use them effectively.
Tutorial Details:
In the Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition 1.4 (J2SE 1.4), several new networking features and enhancements were introduced: new protocols (such as the Internet Protocol version 6, or IPv6), improved performance of existing features, and other frequently-asked-for features. This article describes the new features and enhancements in J2SE 1.4, and shows you how to use them effectively.
The java.net package contains the classes and interfaces that provide low-level and high-level APIs for network programming. The low-level APIs allow you to have direct access to network protocols -- in other words, you work with low-level TCP sockets and UDP datagrams. The high-level APIs (such as the URL and URLConnection classes) allow you to develop network applications faster, with much less code to write. This speed, however, comes at the expense of flexibility.
