The lessons in this chapter show you how to implement Links. These Links are small utility programs that allow you to 'link' a legacy (non-java) program to Java. Note: while this is not really a part of OpenMath it is useful to have a generic structure on which a programmer can build to create more links to legacy programs.

Design of the Link class explains the design of the Link class and how an implementer could program it to make a Link to a legacy program.

Some example implementations gives you 3 examples that show you how we have written links to some legacy programs.
