Examples  

AWT Monitor

The AWT Monitor allows you to obtain information about objects being displayed on the screen by a particular JavaTM Virtual Machine, and does not require the Java Foundation Classes.

To run the AWTMonitor example, you need to have obtained and installed the JDK1.1.5 or better.

Java Monitor
The Java Monitor allows you to obtain information about objects being displayed on the screen by a particular Java Virtual Machine, and provides extended support for the Java Foundation Classes.

To run the Java Monitor you need to have obtained and installed the JDK1.1.5 or better, and the Java Foundation Classes.

Explorer
Explorer uses the Java Accessibility Utilities to examine accessible information about the objects in the Java Virtual Machine. It allows the user to select different methods for selecting the object to be examined:  by following focus, by following the mouse, by following caret position, or by pressing the F1 when the pointer is over an object.  Once an object has been selected for examination, Explorer displays the results of calling Java Accessibility API methods on that object.

To run Explorer you need to have obtained and installed the JDK 1.1.5 or better, and the Java Foundation Classes.

Monkey
Like a monkey, Monkey "swings" through the component trees in a particular Java Virtual Machine and presents the hierarchy in two different ways. The first is the actual Component hierarchy and the second is the hierarchy viewed as Accessible objects.  In addition, if the user clicks the right mouse button over a tree node in Monkey, Monkey will present the user with a popup menu containing options for manipulating the object.

To run Monkey you need to have obtained and installed the JDK 1.1.5 or better, and the Java Foundation Classes.
