With java.net, Adaptive Server version 12.5 allows you to create client-side Java networking applications within the server. You can create a network Java client application that connects to any server, which enables Adaptive Server to function as a client to external servers. You can:
Download documents from any URL address on the Internet.
Send e-mail messages from inside the server.
Connect to an external server to save or edit a document.
Access documents using XML.
Sybase supports certain java.net classes, and provides examples that allow you to set up java.net as either a client or a server process.
