This is a placeholder in the documentation for any instance
of a Java object. For example, if a function expects an argument
with the Java type package.Class, this is listed
in the documentation as JavaObject<"package.Class">.
Clicking on the class name (the part in quotes) will jump to the
documentation for that class in the
Java API documentation.
Please note: This special notation is a trick to make the system that
builds the JavaScript documentation happy (since it doesn't know anything
about the Java API). You would never write JavaObject<"..."> in your script code.
To refer to the class of the object in your code, the part in quotes will suffice.
For example, suppose you have a function writeFile that the documentation states
takes a JavaObject<"java.io.File"> (a Java File object). Then the script
code that calls writeFile might look like this:
let myFile = new java.io.File("~/chris/output.txt");
writeFile(myFile);
