Sorry, no. (though maybe check out codewarrior, not free, not sure whether its even java 2). You can get swing to run under OS 9.

But basically apple decided there was little point bringing java 2 to MacOS classic, when OS X when just around the corner. Why do you want java 2? Personally the only thing that''s useful is the speed boost (due to hotspot). Well that and maybe drag''n''drop. (I am probably just saying that as I have been forcing myself to only use 1.1, so that stuff works in applets).

primarily because my main instruction manual has quite
a bit of Java 2. But since there is no choice, I''m up
for 1.1, I can probably get an older version of my book.
heh, I think I will.

OK if im on 1.1 that brings up the questions,
"Can I use SWING?"
"Where exactly does swing come in?"

Thank You.

Yes, you can use swing (as it''s basically a set of classes written in 1.1 code).

Swing gives you some "nicer" components, that are otherwise missing from the AWT. Such as tabs, and other stuff. The problem is that it is slow. Personally I use AWT, but that''s mainly because all I want is something to draw on (for games).
