36 <title>Introduction to JDK</title>
37
38 <para>The <application>JDK</application> package contains
39 Sun's <application>Java</application> development environment. This is
40 useful for developing <application>Java</application> programs and provides
41 the runtime environment necessary to run <application>Java</application>
42 programs. It also includes a plug-in for browsers so that they can be
43 <application>Java</application> aware.</para>
44
45 <para>The <application>JDK</application> comes in two flavors, a
46 precompiled binary and a source package. Previously, the plugin included
47 in the <application>JDK</application> binary package was unusable on LFS
48 owing to incompatibilities with <application>GCC</application>-3 compiled
49 browsers. This is not the case anymore.</para>
50
51 <para>In order to use the source code and patches, you must read and agree
52 to the Sun <ulink url="http://www.java.net/jrl.csp">
53 Java Research License</ulink> or optionally, the Sun
54 <ulink url="http://java.net/jiul.csp">Java Internal Use License</ulink>.
55 In addition, the source code cannot be downloaded from some countries, so
56 for users in those countries, the binary is the only option.</para>
57
58 <para>If you plan on compiling the <application>JDK</application> source,
59 you will still need to download the binary version to bootstrap the
60 <application>JDK</application> build. You will need to download a total
61 of four files to complete the source build:
62 <filename>jdk-&jdk-bin-string;-linux-i586.bin</filename>,
63 <filename>jdk-&jdk-src-string;-fcs-src-b05-jrl-13_oct_2005.jar</filename>
64 (or optionally the JIUL version),
65 <filename>jdk-&jdk-src-string;-fcs-bin-b05-13_oct_2005.jar</filename>, and
66 <filename>jdk-&jdk-src-string;-mozilla_headers-b05-unix-26_aug_2005.jar</filename>.
