Chapter 1 - JManager Reference
The Java(TM) Applet/Application Manager (JManager) is a set of C-based functions that you use to instantiate an environment to run Java code on the Mac OS platform and to interact with the code within it. You can use these JManager functions to prepare and execute Java code (such as applets) from Mac OS applications or to create Mac OS-compatible Java applications.
Some JManager functions require you have some knowledge of how to manipulate windows or handle user events on the Mac OS platform. If you are not familiar with these concepts, you should consult Inside Macintosh: Macintosh Toolbox Essentials, and Inside Macintosh: More Macintosh Toolbox before using JManager functions.
If you are new to the Mac OS platform, you should check Appendix A for Mac OS-related issues that might affect your Java code.
This document does not describe the Java language or low-level details of the Java virtual machine. For that information, you should consult JavaSoft documentation, which you can access through the JavaSoft home page:

This document also does not cover the specifics of the Java Runtime Interface (JRI). For more information about the JRI, you should read documentation available at the Netscape Communications developer Web page:
