4 | <para>The <application>J2SDK</application> package contains Sun's
|
---|
5 | <application>Java</application> development environment. This is useful for
|
---|
6 | developing <application>Java</application> programs and provides the runtime
|
---|
7 | environment necessary to run <application>Java</application> programs. It also
|
---|
8 | includes a plug-in for browsers so that they can be <application>Java
|
---|
9 | </application> aware.</para>

|

11 | <para>
|
---|
12 | The <acronym>JDK</acronym> comes in two flavors, a precompiled binary and a
|
---|
13 | source package. Previously, the plugin included in the <acronym>JDK</acronym> binary
|
---|
14 | package was unusable on <acronym>LFS</acronym>
|
---|
15 | owing to incompatibilities with <acronym>GCC</acronym>-3 compiled browsers.
|
---|
16 | This is not the case anymore.</para>
|
---|
17 |
|
---|
18 | <para>The source package requires registration at the Sun
|
---|
19 | developer site and accepting the Sun Community Source License.
|
---|
20 | The source code cannot be downloaded from some countries, so for users
|
---|
21 | from those countries, the binary may be the only option.</para>
|
---|
22 |
|
---|
23 | <para>Even if you plan on compiling the <acronym>JDK</acronym> source, you will
|
---|
24 | need to download the binary version to bootstrap the <acronym>JDK</acronym>
|
---|
25 | build. Follow the below link to download both source and binary packages. When
|
---|
26 | downloading the source also download the <application>Mozilla</application>
|
---|
27 | headers package available at the same location.</para>
