Welcome to Berkeley DB Java Edition (JE).
<span>
This document introduces JE, version 12<span class="emphasis"><em>c</em></span> Release 2.
</span>
</p>
<p>
This document is intended to provide a rapid introduction
to the JE API set and related concepts. The goal of this
document is to provide you with an efficient mechanism with which
you can evaluate JE against your project's technical
requirements. As such, this document is intended for
<span>Java</span>
developers and senior software architects who are looking for an
<span>
in-process data management solution.
</span>
No prior experience with Berkeley DB Java Edition is expected or required.

<p>
The following typographical conventions are used within in this manual:
</p>
<p>
Class names are represented in <code class="classname">monospaced font</code>, as are <code class="methodname">method
names</code>. For example:
<span>"The <code class="methodname">Environment.openDatabase()</code> method
returns a <code class="classname">Database</code> class object."</span>
</p>
<p>
Variable or non-literal text is presented in <span class="emphasis"><em>italics</em></span>. For example: "Go to your
<span class="emphasis"><em>JE_HOME</em></span>
directory."
</p>
<p>
Program examples are displayed in a <code class="classname">monospaced font</code> on a shaded background.
For example:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">import com.sleepycat.je.Environment;
...
// Open the environment. Allow it to be created if it does not
// already exist.
Environment myDbEnv;</pre>
<p>
In some situations, programming examples are updated from one chapter to the next. When
this occurs, the new code is presented in <strong class="userinput"><code>monospaced bold</code></strong> font. For example:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">import com.sleepycat.je.Environment;
<strong class="userinput"><code>import com.sleepycat.je.EnvironmentConfig;
import java.io.File;</code></strong>
...
// Open the environment. Allow it to be created if it does not
// already exist.
Environment myDbEnv;
<strong class="userinput"><code>EnvironmentConfig envConfig = new EnvironmentConfig();
envConfig.setAllowCreate(true);
myDbEnv = new Environment(new File("/export/dbEnv"), envConfig);</code></strong> </pre>
<div class="note" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;">
<h3 class="title">Note</h3>
<p>
Finally, notes of interest are represented using a note block such
as this.
