DODS Software - Java Version 1.0

The Java implementation of the DODS protocol includes two pieces of software:

• the Java version of the DODS core library (DAP Java) supplies tools for developing DODS clients and servers in Java
• the DODS Relational Database Server (DRDS) allows you to serve data from any SQL database that has a JDBC driver. It is a basic implementation that can be expanded upon.
