Java2 SDK v. 1.4 Released

Posted by michael on from the cuppa-joe dept.

pangloss writes: "Yay: XML, built-in Perl-ish regex, jdbc 3.0, asserts, IPv6, lots of other goodies. Release notes and incompatibilities. And I think this means I can use my wheel-mouse in NetBeans without that extra module ;) Download it here." WilsonSD adds: "There are many cool new features including a New I/O package, an Assert Facility and enhanced performance." Some other random Java notes: O'Reilly has an essay about why you won't see any open source J2EE implementations, and Kodak has filed a patent-infringement claim against Sun regarding Java.

    "facade of neutrality"?

    Do you even read Slashdot? :)

    I don't think anyone claims this is an unbiased news site. It's a message board for Linux geeks. Love it or leave it. Or present your own viewpoint. :)

    Actually, I was wondering where I could download Linux of Death. I'd see it having a logo of a cute penguin wearing a skull and cross-bones t-shirt, and weilding a scythe.
