I found some books available from Amazon.com (and therefore in any bookshop if you order it in) that deal as references to the Java API. I have listed the ones that are of interest as a way of getting a "hardcopy" of the Java API.
 
Would anyone recommend these ?
 
2 were mentioned on the JDJList -- the java Developers Almanac and the Java in a nutshell books. Are these good API references as well ?
 
The Java Developers Almanac seems good cos it seems to give a lot of examples.

Yeah so I am looking at trying to get a hard copy of the Java API to be able to look up for example :-
1) where status() is used and what it is about
2) methods used in JButton to mainpulate the size of a JButton
 
and these seem to be something that could be of use.
 
As mentioned, the Java Almanac and the Java In A Nutshell were also mentioned in this regard.
 
Can people comment on what would be a good buy to get a good reference to the Java API ?
