These classes aren't documented because they're not intended for use by
java developers; they're for the internal use of Sun's JDK implementation.
Sun reserves the right to make changes to these classes at any time.
That being said, Elliot "Rusty" Harold wrote a book called "Java Secrets"
that describes these classes. You can find a description of this book at
http://sunsite.lanet.lv/javafaq/books/secrets/index.html (and at other
SunSite mirrors, but that's the first one that popped up in my search
(where the hell is ".lv", anyway? Latvia?)). I think (though I'm not sure)
that he used a decompiler to convert the .class files back to .java source
code).
