What's the recommended way to embed (c), version, TM, etc in a class file?

[Al Koch]

Hello,

I'd like to embed information such as Version #, TM, (c), etc. into my cass
files. I guess I can simply place these in a string in the .java file and
it will end up in the class file but I am wondeing if there is a
"better/recommended" way to do this. In the Microsoft C++ world there is a
"Resource file" that contains such information and it gets built into the
final binary executable. How's this done in the Java world?

Thanks,
Al,
