<body> <p> The GNU JavaBeans™ Activation Framework (JAF) provides a <a href="http://www.gnu.org/">Free</a> implementation of the JavaBeans™ Activation Framework, version 1.1. </p> <p> JAF links together beans and internet standards for specifying MIME types and how MIME types are processed. It provides a means to associate data of a given MIME type with bean actions operating on that data. </p> <h4>Important files</h4> <p> Standard <code>mime.types</code> files are parsed by the JAF MIME handling classes to work out the MIME types available on the local system. </p> <p> Standard <code>mailcap</code> files (defined in RFC1524) are parsed by mail capability handling classes to work out what beans should be linked to what MIME types. </p> <p> <small>Neither the authors nor the Free Software Foundation offer ANY SUPPORT for this software or imply any warranty.<br> Use it at your own risk. </small> </p> <p> <small>If you can suggest improvements in either the implementation code or in the documentation please contact the <a href="mailto:classpath@gnu.org">GNU Classpath project</a> developers. </small> </p> </body>
