http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutori...aOO/index.html is an OK guide to the OO stuff in java. Be aware that these pages are for Java SE, the Java we use on the robot for at least this year is still pretty old. I think all the OO stuff (classes, inheritance, etc) is the same aside from enums. They also have some pages in there on things coming in Java 8 which we definitely don't have.

Re: XBOX Controller JAVA Programming

Thank you again, Big J. I think I saw the Oracle tutorial site at some point but thought it was going to a big/long thing, so I saved the link and moved on. Once you suggested it, I took a quick look around and saw that it does kepp it pretty brief but w/ looks like all of the context. I have passed it along to our senior programmer, and I am going through them right now.
