JDK Documentation - FTP Instructions

The following documents are available in tar and zip format from our FTP site. The API HTML files are also available in Macintosh bin and Macintosh hqx format. Check our Mirror Sites FTP Page as well.

The following packages contain all the documents listed above, in PostScript format (there is one file in PostScript format for each API package):

-rw-r--r--   1 root     staff     962473 Jan 24 09:49 JDK-1_0-psdocs.tar.Z
-rw-r--r--   1 root     staff     667887 Jan 24 09:49 JDK-1_0-psdocs.zip
The following packages contain only the API documents, in HTML format. (Some of the Macintosh API HTML files have been renamed to conform to Macintosh file naming rules.)
-rw-r--r--   1 root     staff     579826 Jan 23 09:14 JDK-1_0-apidocs.tar.Z
-rw-r--r--   1 root     staff     467503 Jan 23 09:14 JDK-1_0-apidocs.zip
-rw-r--r--   1 root     staff     416128 Feb 12 15:29 JDK-1_0-apidocs.sea.bin
-rw-r--r--   1 root     staff     558053 Feb 12 15:30 JDK-1_0-apidocs.sea.hqx

The simplest way to download them is to click on one of the following links.

This will automatically download a compressed tar file, a zip file, a MacBinary (*.bin) file, or a Macintosh hqx format file to your machine which you can unpack with the instructions below.

If you prefer, you can download the release via anonymous ftp from the following site:


Don't forget to put ftp in binary mode before downloading! Here's an example.

    $ ftp ftp.javasoft.com
    Name (ftp.javasoft.com): anonymous
    331 Guest login ok, send your complete e-mail address as password.
    Password: user@machine
	<< informational messages <<
    ftp> binary
    200 Type set to I.
    ftp> cd docs
	<< more informational messages <<
    250 CWD command successful.
    ftp> get JDK-1_0-psdocs.tar.Z
    200 PORT command successful.
    150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for JDK-1_0-psdocs.tar.Z (962473 bytes).
    226 Transfer complete.
    local: JDK-1_0-psdocs.tar.Z remote: JDK-1_0-psdocs.tar.Z
    962473 bytes received in 83 seconds (9.6 Kbytes/s)
    ftp> quit
For the Macintosh, you can also use Fetch or Anarchie to download the files and unpack them at the same time.

Unpacking the Documentation

After downloading, you can unpack the documentation anywhere you like with the appropriate command below (use the version of unzip from ftp://ftp.uu.net/pub/archiving/zip/WIN32 ):
		zcat JDK-1_0-psdocs.tar.Z | tar xf -
	or 
		unzip JDK-1_0-psdocs.zip
Or use Stuffit to decode the MacBinary format, or DeHQX to decode the Macintosh HQX format.

This will create the directories that contain the files. Don't forget to delete the compressed file once you have unpacked it.
