J2SE 5.0 Source Code Bundles Now Available

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the compile-again-run-anywhere dept.

madcowbrit writes "J2SE 5.0 Source code bundles are now available with SCSL and the new and exciting Java Research license! Coders have been asking for Java J2SE source code access under new terms. The new Java Research license gives people more access and options to work with the Java J2SE source code."

    I hate Java without uint and ulong.

  3. Self compilation by La+Gris · · Score: 0, Redundant

    gcc is able compile self. Does java compile itself?

    I guess, it does not. What's the point after all? Running russian headstock or nested machines may be more funny than usefull with actual computer technologies. It may come a day where complexity involved in computing will require layering abstraction at machine level. Having distributed and nested machines would allow massive mutualization of computing power wihile smoothing technology decay and waste while mainting constant evolution.

    Having the java source available to universites, students and research projects, may lead to grow new trends like this.
