D-Bus is a message bus, used for sending messages between applications. Conceptually, it fits somewhere in between raw sockets and CORBA in terms of complexity.

This package provides several programs using the Java implementation of D-Bus. This includes a simple D-Bus daemon for use in session buses, A tool for generating Java stubs from D-Bus introspection data and a graphical browser for D-Bus connections.

See the dbus description for more information about D-Bus in general.
