Question Brief Answer
What is SSS? SSS is a simple tool for handling classes and objects.
An article by Alper Coskun explains it best.
Who is the author? M Akif Eyler from Istanbul, Turkey.
Is it for beginners only? SSS would be very useful for a beginner learning java.lang.String or java.io.File. A programmer mastering java.net.URL or java.util.TreeSet would also benefit from fast learning. Experienced programmers will also find it useful as a fast inspector.
On which system does it run? Being a pure-Java application, it works on all platforms where JVM (1.3 or higher) is installed.
Do I need to expand the jar file? No, the proper way to run SSS is
% java -jar sssDemo.jar
Both Windows and Linux platforms allow you to use "open with" command and then enter "java -jar" as the command. This will connect jar files to the JVM and you can open them just by clicking on them. (When JVM is installed under Windows, this connection is automatic)
When I invoke a method "X10" is written in the text field. Why? Every object under inspection must have a name. (Names are always better than addresses.) So every time a new object will be returned, the user is asked to supply a name. X10 is the default name for the first object. It will become X11, X12, ... as needed.
How do I get the full version? SSS is not released yet. The demo is in public domain.
Why SSS? Small: about 100K, as a JAR file
Simple: you can use it with no knowledge of Java language
Safe: only public members are accessible
