32 <title>Introduction to JDK</title>
33
34 <para>The <application>JDK</application> package contains
35 Sun's <application>Java</application> development environment. This is useful
36 for developing <application>Java</application> programs and provides the
37 runtime environment necessary to run <application>Java</application> programs.
38 It also includes a plug-in for browsers so that they can be
39 <application>Java</application> aware.</para>
40
41 <para>The <application>JDK</application> comes in two flavors, a precompiled
42 binary and a source package. Previously, the plugin included in the
43 <application>JDK</application> binary package was unusable on LFS
44 owing to incompatibilities with <application>GCC</application>-3 compiled browsers.
45 This is not the case anymore.</para>
46
47 <para>In order to use the source code and patches, you must read and agree
48 to the Sun <ulink url="http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/jrl_5.0-license.txt">
49 Java Research License</ulink>. In addition, the source code cannot be
50 downloaded from some countries, so for users in those countries, the binary
51 is the only option.</para>
52
53 <para>If you plan on compiling the <application>JDK</application> source, you
54 will still need to download the binary version to bootstrap the
55 <application>JDK</application> build. You will need to download a total of four
56 files to complete the source build:
57 <filename>jdk-1_5_0_03-linux-i586.bin</filename>,
58 <filename>jdk-1_5_0-src-jrl.zip</filename>,
59 <filename>jdk-1_5_0-bin-jrl.zip</filename>,
