## Uses of Class
java.util.Properties

Packages that use Properties
java.awt: Contains all of the classes for creating user interfaces and for painting graphics and images.
java.lang: Provides classes that are fundamental to the design of the Java programming language.
java.rmi.activation: Provides support for RMI Object Activation.
java.security: Provides the classes and interfaces for the security framework.
java.sql: Provides the API for accessing and processing data stored in a data source (usually a relational database) using the Java™ programming language.
java.util: Contains the collections framework, legacy collection classes, event model, date and time facilities, internationalization, and miscellaneous utility classes (a string tokenizer, a random-number generator, and a bit array).
javax.naming: Provides the classes and interfaces for accessing naming services.
javax.xml.transform: This package defines the generic APIs for processing transformation instructions, and performing a transformation from source to result.
org.omg.CORBA: Provides the mapping of the OMG CORBA APIs to the JavaTM programming language, including the class `ORB`, which is implemented so that a programmer can use it as a fully-functional Object Request Broker (ORB).
