+<summary>
+Builds one or more Java class files.
+The sources may be any combination of explicit
+<filename>.java</filename> files,
+or directory trees which will be scanned
+for <filename>.java</filename> files.
+
+SCons will parse each source <filename>.java</filename> file
+to find the classes
+(including inner classes)
+defined within that file,
+and from that figure out the
+target <filename>.class</filename> files that will be created.
+The class files will be placed underneath
+the specified target directory.
+
+SCons will also search each Java file
+for the Java package name,
+which it assumes can be found on a line
+beginning with the string
+<literal>package</literal>
+in the first column;
+the resulting <filename>.class</filename> files
+will be placed in a directory reflecting
+the specified package name.
+For example,
+the file
+<filename>Foo.java</filename>
+defining a single public
+<classname>Foo</classname>
+class and
+containing a package name of
+<classname>sub.dir</classname>
+will generate a corresponding
+<filename>sub/dir/Foo.class</filename>
+class file.
+
+Examples:
+
+<example>
+env.Java(target = 'classes', source = 'src')
+env.Java(target = 'classes', source = ['src1', 'src2'])
+env.Java(target = 'classes', source = ['File1.java', 'File2.java'])
+</example>
+
+Java source files can use the native encoding for the underlying OS.
+Since SCons compiles in simple ASCII mode by default,
+the compiler will generate warnings about unmappable characters,
+which may lead to errors as the file is processed further.
+In this case, the user must specify the <literal>LANG</literal>
+environment variable to tell the compiler what encoding is used.
+For portibility, it's best if the encoding is hard-coded
+so that the compile will work if it is done on a system
+with a different encoding.
+
+<example>
+env = Environment()
+env['ENV']['LANG'] = 'en_GB.UTF-8'
+</example>

+<summary>
+Specifies the Java version being used by the &b-Java; builder.
+This is <emphasis>not</emphasis> currently used to select one
+version of the Java compiler vs. another.
+Instead, you should set this to specify the version of Java
+supported by your &javac; compiler.
+The default is <literal>1.4</literal>.
+
+This is sometimes necessary because
+Java 1.5 changed the file names that are created
+for nested anonymous inner classes,
+which can cause a mismatch with the files
+that &SCons; expects will be generated by the &javac; compiler.
+Setting &cv-JAVAVERSION; to <literal>1.5</literal>
+(or <literal>1.6</literal>, as appropriate)
+can make &SCons; realize that a Java 1.5 or 1.6
+build is actually up to date.
