    Hello!

    I'm reading in a document about Window System and there is some about Java
    that I want to ask you about because I don't realy understand what they
    mean.
    It says the following: "Java creates only partial window object of its own.
    For full functionality, it relies on peer objects that are taken from
    whatever toolkit happens to be available in the system the program runs.

    What does it mean with "Java creates only partial window object of its own".
    What does it mean with "it relies on peer objects that are taken from
    whatever toolkit happens to be available in the system the program runs."

    Assume you use java on MS windows what toolkit will java use then.?
