Apple adds Java SE 6 support to Leopard with new update

When it comes to Java 6, Apple's hasn't exactly been quick to add it to Mac OS X. In fact, Java 6 was released in December 2006, but wasn't added to Tiger or Leopard in 2007. Sure, Apple did release a Developer Preview of the Java 6 JDK, but that wasn't an official consumer release. Apple has finally gotten around to adding Java 6 to Leopard, though, and has released the new Java for Mac OS X 10.5 Update 1 with the new version.

Java Champion Adam Bien on the Latest Technologies

Java Champion Adam Bien has an extended history with both the Java SE and Java EE technologies, having worked with both since their inception with JDK 1.0 and Java Web Server, as Janice J. Heiss reports. At the outset of the interview, Bien identified three fallacies associated with the Java EE platform: the belief that J2EE is complex; the belief that Java EE 5 is easy; and the belief that distributed programming could be simpler. Instead, he maintains, the process of building J2EE applications is labor intensive and can be boring but not exactly complex. He offered code samples of the operations necessary to deploy the server-side component HelloBean. With Java EE 5 the process is somewhat simpler.

SourceLabs Offers Self-Support for Linux, Java

If you are a developer working at a major corporation or a small company and you want to use Linux and open source tools to create Java applications, there is very little possibility that your company is going to let you do that without getting tech support for the Linux and tools that you use. But in many cases, even after paying for support, you end up doing a lot of the work yourself anyway. Which kinda defeats the purpose of paying someone else to do the support work and hold your hand.

Java 6 Released for 64bit Intel Macs

IconBack in 2007 when Apple released Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, a much-heard criticism was the lack of support for Java 6. Leopard shipped with an older version of Java, 1.5, even though 1.6 had been released by Sun almost a year prior. Sun had already released Java 1.6 for Linux and Windows, but did not do so for Mac OS X, since Apple insists on developing their own version of Java, according to Sun. Now, 6 months later, Mac Java programmers can rejoice.

Sun to Fully Open Source Java

Dionysius, God of Wine and Leaf brings news that Sun Microsystems will be removing the last restrictions on Java to make it completely open source. Sun wants Java to be easily available for use in Linux distributions. We've discussed the steps Sun has taken to open-source Java over the past couple years. From Yahoo! News: "'We've been engaging with the open-source community for Java to finish off the OpenJDK project, and the specific thing that we've been working on with them is clearing the last bits that we didn't have the rights,' to distribute, Sands said. 'Over the past year, we have pretty much removed most of those encumbrances.' Work still needs to be done to offer the Java sound engine and SNMP code via open source; that effort is expected to be completed this year.

Sony Ericsson To Combine Flash And Java

Sony (NYSE: SNE) Ericsson (NSDQ: ERIC) has announced “new technology that lets developers combine Adobe’s (NSDQ: ADBE) Flash Lite and Java ME into a single Java application�, reports PC World.

The aim is to have the technology on all the manufacturer’s handsets, and the company plans to share the technology with the broader community, either via standards, open source or a combination of the tw

Q&A: Sun exec ponders OpenSolaris, Linux (ComputerWorld)

What do you do at Sun? I see the OpenSolaris project seems to fall onto your plate.
