• Oracle's Pioneering Role in Open Source and Blockchain: A Deep Dive

  Oracle’s seamless integration of open-source contributions and blockchain adoption is a testament to its forward-thinking approach and commitment to technological innovation. By supporting key projects like Java via the OpenJDK project and ensuring the robustness of its cloud solutions through the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, Oracle demonstrates that true innovation is born from a culture of collaboration and... - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago

  Visit the Oracle JDK download page or use OpenJDK. - Source: dev.to / 7 months ago

• Lisp Virtual Machine Design Question

  Reloading is nothing new under the sun for Lisp, I believe. For ML and adequate reload-ability, one might be hard pressed, but it's nothing new under the Sun (hint, hint). Maybe too on the nose, but one probably wants good inlining, and thus more "speculative" de/optimisation to preserve redefinition. Source: over 2 years ago

• "Why Apache Harmony" or "How to use Java 8 on Android"

  If they don't want Oracle's Java, why can't they use a subset of OpenJDK (licensing noob here)? Source: almost 3 years ago

• Replacement for Java?

  Does this change affect https://openjdk.java.net/ too? Source: almost 3 years ago

• Go on Mac OS 9

  I think they use a circular queue of functions that is each executed for around 100 ms. I am guessing the system timer is used to generate an interrupt that pauses execution of the current function and starts executing the next function. Apple's Java code is probably closed source. I did find mention of an openjdk here: https://openjdk.java.net. I haven't looked at the source code yet. Source: almost 3 years ago

• Oracle Java popularity sliding, New Relic reports

  What exactly is unsubstantiated here? Have you looked at OpenJDK's sources and/or licence and/or contributors? They're right here. And here's the project's homepage: https://openjdk.java.net. Source: about 3 years ago

• Oracle Java popularity sliding, New Relic reports

  I know this because I'm one of OpenJDK's developers, and, like almost all OpenJDK developers, I work at Oracle, but you can just check for yourself, by, say, visiting OpenJDK's website. Source: about 3 years ago

• Install Flutter on Ubuntu 21.10 with Snap and APT

  As of this writing, OpenJDK 11 is the default JDK on Ubuntu 21.10. - Source: dev.to / about 3 years ago

• Current Java Trends

  Not so many people know about new things that are going on behind the curtains of OpenJDK repo. You need to subscribe to their newsletter via email groups or you can monitor their bug tracker to be in sync with new stuff. Neither way is convenient so most Java enthusiasts choose to follow blogs with digests. Don't stay in the darkness of ignorance where developers compare languages by "hello world" examples. - Source: dev.to / over 3 years ago

• Cannot find the latest version of the Linux binary

  Now I need the latest version (to run mcaselector) and I cannot remember where I pulled v16 from. I went to openjfx.io, openjdk.java.net, github.com/openjfx but I cannot find a version that has the binary -- only libraries. I searched my commandline history and didnt see any calls to make/compile the current binary, so Im lost as to how I got v16 in the first place. Source: over 3 years ago

• Amazon Corretto, Microsoft Build of OpenJDK, Red Hat Build, IBM Semeru, Oracle, or something else?

  I'm on Linux so I use the standard OpenJDK in the OS repository. If I needed something later, I'd go to openjdk's site and get it there. Source: over 3 years ago

• How do you deal with some one looking down opon you?

  Java code is compiled, but rather than being compiled into machine-specific instructions, it's converted to a generic Java "Bytecode" which is then run within another program called a Java Virtual Machine (JVM). In order to run Java programs, you must first have a JVM installed on your computer (that was compiled for your specific hardware). Proprietary versions are offered for various platforms free of charge on... Source: over 3 years ago

• the only reason java is still relevant is because it is shoved down the throats of high schoolers and college students

  Oracle themselves offers a GPL’d build of OpenJDK that is free to use anywhere, including production (this can always be found here https://openjdk.java.net/). Source: over 3 years ago

• Which JDK and which version to grab?

  Java is open source (available under GPL from for example https://github.com/openjdk/). Many different companies collaborates and contributes to the openjdk project. OpenJDK (https://openjdk.java.net/) provides "The official Reference Implementation" of different versions of Java, which are builds without any modifications to the source code (available from https://jdk.java.net/). In addition, have different... Source: over 3 years ago

• Did Oracle just do a 180° turn and is now offering OracleJDK free for commercial use again after estranging commercial customers and pushing the adoption of OpenJDK?

  You are just making shit up now, they haven’t done this at all. The Oracle build of OpenJDK is still available at https://openjdk.java.net and is still free. If you use this then it is recommended for performance and security you should update to java 18 when it comes out because 17 won’t get any updates then. But no one is going to force you to upgrade.

• Did Oracle just do a 180° turn and is now offering OracleJDK free for commercial use again after estranging commercial customers and pushing the adoption of OpenJDK?

  OpenJDK is the name of Oracle's implementation of Java (it is open-source, and other companies contribute, too), unlike, say, OpenJ9, which is an IBM implementation. But OpenJDK is the source code. Many companies build the source and give the binaries different names. For example, Bellsoft call their builds Liberica, Azul call theirs Zulu, SAP call theirs SAP machines, and Oracle has builds with different terms,... Source: over 3 years ago

• What we can do as a community to prevent Java being forgotten/fall into the legacy-only world?

  A website. Seriously. java.com is a sick joke. I swear to god it is designed for 800x600 screens and hasn't been updated since. This website is literally the same as it was a decade ago, only the stock artwork has changed. There's also java.net which if you go there says - I kid thee not - "we're sorry, the java.net site has closed". Of course the closest thing to a real website these days is... Source: over 3 years ago
