| The GNU JavaBeans™ Activation Framework (JAF) provides a |
| <a href="http://www.gnu.org/">Free</a> implementation of the |
| JavaBeans™ Activation Framework, version 1.1. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| JAF links together beans and internet standards for specifying MIME |
| types and how MIME types are processed. It provides a means to associate |
| data of a given MIME type with bean actions operating on that data. |
| </p> |
| |
| |
| <h4>Important files</h4> |
| |
| <p> |
| Standard <code>mime.types</code> files are parsed by the JAF MIME |
| handling classes to work out the MIME types available on the local |
| system. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| Standard <code>mailcap</code> files (defined in RFC1524) are parsed by |
| mail capability handling classes to work out what beans should be linked |
| to what MIME types. |
