Just released -- Java Tutorials update
To coincide with the JDK7 Preview Release and JavaOne, we have just published an updated version of the Java Tutorials. Besides fixing many typos and errors that you have reported, this release includes:
- An entirely reworked File I/O lesson, featuring NIO.2. This functionality is part of JDK7, which is available now through the Open JDK project on java.net.
- A new specialized trail covering Sockets Direct Protocol, also new in JDK7.
- A new facility for gathering feedback about the tutorial. At the bottom of each tutorial page, under the "Discuss" heading, you can leave a publicly viewable, blog-style comment. Let us know what you think about the inclusion of this JS-Kit mechanism.
Thanks, as always, for your feedback. It helps us improve the tutorial!

Hi Sharon,
Would it be OK (I mean respective of licensing issues) to build a Netbeans plugin that contains the zipped java tutorial and provides easy access to it from within the IDE even when off-line ??
Thanks,
Daniel

Hi Sharon,
Thanks for the great effort. It seems that the folder "JavaBeans" is missing in the zip file (tutorial-2009_05_27.zip).
Could you please add the corresponding files?
Thank you very much.

Ming, did you download that file after 7/14? It was missing some files and I put a new one out on that date. If you do a fresh download, you should get all the files. (I just did a fresh download and checked and it looks fine.)
