    If you have an object you use when you call the method, call that object's getClass() method to get its class.

    Hi Norm,

    I got the following weird class Name-
    com.sun.deploy.uitoolkit.impl.awt.AWTAppletAdapter$AppletContextImpl

    What does this mean?

    In my Applet Program I just call the showDocument() Method which is part of the AppletContext Interface,but not sure from where does it find the implementer class of this method

    Regard,
    Akshay

    There is no "meaning" there. It's the name of the class that implements the interface. There isn't much use knowing the name of the class provided by a get method that returns an instance of a class that implements some interface.
    where does it find the implementer class
    It's up to the programmer that wrote the code to give a class its name.

    Okay..The only thing I can conclude with here is that Java has hidden the implementation details of this method i.e. showDocument(URL url) . And we are using this method as a black box by just passing the parameters without knowing the implementation details.

    Seems like a reasonable assumption. The source for some classes comes with the JDK. Have you looked there to see if there is source for this class?

    Look in the JDK installation folder. On my system its:
    D:\Java\jdk1.7.0\src.zip
