The old Java package itself doesn't have too many Java-Octave code itself.
Furthermore several things have changed since the Java package got absorbed
in core Octave.

So, if you're looking for examples: in the io package there's a lot of Java
code for the spreadsheet I/O functions, including a number of workarounds
for Java stuff that won't work directly in Octave (and not even in Matlab at
all, workarounds or not).
