-The Java SDK provides a generic set of wrappers so you can make API calls in java.
+The Java SDK v1 provides a low level API to call Arvados from Java.
h3. Introdution
* The Java SDK requires Java 6 or later
-
+
* The Java SDK is implemented as a maven project. Hence, you would need a working
maven environment to be able to build the source code. If you do not have maven setup,
-you may find the "Maven in 5 Minutes":http://maven.apache.org/guides/getting-started/maven-in-five-minutes.html link useful.

* In this document $ARVADOS_HOME is used to refer to the directory where
arvados code is cloned in your system. For ex: $ARVADOS_HOME = $HOME/arvados
