As an Application Admin/ developer and Architect, we need to know basic functionalities of JDK tools to run, configure, manage and monitor java applications. I tried to list few of them and would describe them in next blogs.
javac The compiler for the Java programming language.
java The launcher for Java applications.
javadoc API documentation generator.
apt Annotation processing tool. See Annotation Processing Tool for program annotation processing.
appletviewer Run and debug applets without a web browser.
jar Create and manage Java Archive (JAR) files.
jdb The Java Debugger.
javah C header and stub generator. Used to write native methods.
javap Class file disassembler
extcheck Utility to detect Jar conflicts.
keytool Manage keystores and certificates.
jarsigner Generate and verify JAR signatures.
policytool GUI tool for managing policy files.
native2ascii Convert text to Unicode Latin-1.
rmic Generate stubs and skeletons for remote objects.
rmiregistry Remote object registry service.
rmid RMI activation system daemon.
serialver Return class serialVersionUID.
tnameserv Provides access to the naming service.
idlj Generates .java files that map an OMG IDL interface and enable an application written in the Java programming language to use CORBA functionality.
orbd Provides support for clients to transparently locate and invoke persistent objects on servers in the CORBA environment. ORBD is used instead of the Transient Naming Service, tnameserv. ORBD includes both a Transient Naming Service and a Persistent Naming Service. The orbd tool incorporates the functionality of a Server Manager, an Interoperable Naming Service, and a Bootstrap Name Server. When used in conjunction with the servertool, the Server Manager locates, registers, and activates a server when a client wants to access the server.
servertool Provides ease-of-use interface for the application programmers to register, unregister, startup, and shutdown a server.
