java package for cdev

We are now opening up the beta of the java cdev package to all comers.
As a reminder, this java package allows you to program a control
application in 100% java to be executable within a web browser as an
applet, or standalone as an application. Communication with the control
system is through the cdevGateway, included in release 1.6 of cdev.

Patrick also has a demonstration version of jdm (medm emulator built
entirely in java) nearly done which is built upon the cdev package,
and a package of display classes and an adl (medm format) parser.
There should be a demo of this on the web within a few weeks.

You may retrieve the entire java cdev package over the web as a tar
file at:

http://www.jlab.org/cdev/java/javacdevbeta1.tar

There is some on-line documentation at

http://www.jlab.org/~cquach/cdev_Documentation/Package-cdev.html

Reminder: the java binding is somewhat different from the C++ binding
(to be more consistent with java, and in some cases because java
cannot pass primitive types by address -- no pointers).

Please post suggestions for improvements and bug reports to this list.
I'll try to post a FAQ about cdev java plans asap. Also, if you have
some ideas you would like to collaborate on, we're eager to talk.

Regards,

Chip Watson
