Using the Desktop API in Java SE 6 (Mustang)

Thread view: 
John O'Conner - 07 Feb 2006 21:49 GMT
This article describes the new Desktop API, which allows Java
applications to interact with the default applications associated with
specific file types on the host platform. In order to describe the API
more effectively, the article also features a simple application called
DesktopDemo.

Hope you enjoy,

Thanks John, again.

I sorely miss a thing for the Desktop class documentation.
It is *the definition* of the default browser et al for the class, from
the view point of the class implementation. For Windows oprating system
that should be obvious but for different
configurations for different oprating environments ???

Also I'd like to know how to temporarily set them for a Java program
that uses the Desktop class.
