Class Summary

Class	Description
ComThread	Represents a COM level thread This is an abstract class because all the methods are static and no instances are ever created.
Currency	Most COM bridges use java.lang.Long as their Java data type for COM Currency data.
DateUtilities	java / windows date conversion utilities
Dispatch	Object represents MS level dispatch object.
DispatchEvents	This class creates the scaffolding for event callbacks.
DispatchIdentifier	A bunch of DispatchIds that were pulled out of the Dispatch class for version 1.14.
DispatchProxy	If you need to pass a COM Dispatch object between STA threads, you have to marshall the interface.
EnumVariant	An implementation of IEnumVariant based on code submitted by Thomas Hallgren (mailto:Thomas.Hallgren@eoncompany.com)
InvocationProxy
InvocationProxyAllVariants	This class acts as a proxy between the windows event callback mechanism and the Java classes that are looking for events.
JacobObject	The superclass of all Jacob objects.
JacobReleaseInfo	An interface to the version properties file.
LibraryLoader	Utility class to centralize the way in which the jacob JNI library is loaded.
MainSTA	We provide our own main sta thread to avoid COM tagging a random thread as the main STA - this is the thread in which all Apartment threaded components will be created if the client chooses an MTA threading model for the java side of the app.
ROT	The Running Object Table (ROT) maps each thread to a collection of all the JacobObjects that were created in that thread.
SafeArray	This creates an array wrapper around Variant objects(?).
STA	A class that implements a Single Threaded Apartment.
Variant	The multi-format data type used for all call backs and most communications between Java and COM.
VariantUtilities	A utility class used to convert between Java objects and Variants
VariantViaEvent	a public class to variant that is used to track which variant objects are created by event callbacks This is solely used for that purpose.

ComException	Standard exception thrown by com jni code when there is a problem
ComFailException	COM Fail Exception class raised when there is a problem
