+<title>Jode API</title>

+
+<body>
+<p>Jode is a set of package usefule for handling java class files.
+<i>Jode</i>'s main purpose is to do decompile and obfuscate classes.
+Nonetheless it contains a lot of infrastructure that may be useful for
+other packages working on java class files. Therefore I publish the
+API here.</p>
+
+<p><b>Note:</b> Jode is licensed under GNU GPL.  This implies that if
+you want to distribute a program that makes use this API you have to
+do it under the conditions of the GNU GPL.  As long as you don't
+distribute it now restrictions apply.  Otherwise you have to make all
+your source open and allow the redistributions of it.  Refer to the <a
+href="http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html">GNU GPL</a> for the
+details.</p>
+
+
+<p>The best documented package is the {@link net.sf.jode.bytecode}
+package to work on class files.  Of course there are other bytecode
+packages out there, but my bytecode package has some <a
+href="net/sf/jode/bytecode/package-summary.html#advantages">advantages</a>.
+</p>
+
+<p>The class {@link net.sf.jode.decompiler.Decompiler} can be used to
+start the decompiler from your own java package.
