ChiMu Kernel Frameworks
v0_5 [970616]
Overview
This document describes ChiMu’s Kernel frameworks. These frameworks provide basic functionality that should be available to any part of any application. Although ChiMu considers the Kernel to be a product, it is both open and free. You can do anything you want with the Kernel’s design and code as long as you maintain the copyright and warranty notices.
ChiMu’s Java Development Standards [Fussell-1] is a prerequisite for understanding some of the naming conventions and notations used in this document.
Introduction
There are many packages within Kernel and they extend the base functionality of Java in very general and useful ways. The sub-packages within Kernel build upon each other and are also expected to be "very public" (highly referenced) throughout other subsystems. The current documentation is incomplete, but it includes some information on Kernel itself (Library and Package), Exceptions, Functors, Streams, Utilities, and Collections.
