Difference between Java 1.2 and 1.4

Can Anyone tell me the Difference between Java 1.2 and 1.4

Hi,
Well to start with, a hell lot of classes have been added, and others have been altered. The only change in the language is that the assert statement was added.
An application written in 1.2 will most likely run under 1.4.

  • Differences between Java Virtual Machine and Java HotSpot ??

    I am little bit confused between Java Virtual Machine and Java HotSpot.
    My understanding is:
    Java Virtual Machine is the environment to execute Java programs. I think I could understand this part.
    However, the description says, "The Java HotSpot product line consists of a server-side and a client-side virtual machine that share the Java HotSpot runtime environment, but have different compilers suited to the different performance characteristics of clients and servers."
    I am confused with server-side virtual machine. what is that?? Does it mean the environment to execute Java programs remotely through network?? For example, Java plug-in.?? Please advise.

    Hotspot is a JVM.
    Hotspot has different configuration settings. Some of those settings are better suited for a client application. Some are better suited to server applications.

  • Difference between java plug in and JRE

    Hi,
    as Internet Explorer uses a JVM to run applets, I would like to know if there is a difference between the java plug-in you download for your IE, with the JRE you install on your computer to run java programs.
    Thanks in advance, Fred.

    hi,
    as Internet Explorer uses a JVM to run applets, I
    would like to know if there is a difference between
    the java plug-in you download for your IE, with the
    JRE you install on your computer to run java
    programs.ya, they are different in a few aspects.
    The plugin, for the HTML client (eg IE) usually is capable of executing the applets -a subset of java applications. whereas, the standard JVM executes the standalone applications and some network applications developed using RMI feature of Java. It is not capable of executing applets.
    It would be inappropriate to go into the details of the differences in the implementations of the two versions.

  • Differences between Java Studio Creator and any other JSF IDE

    Hi Guys,
    I found that JSF code created when we use Studio Creator is Rave
    while as if we use Bea Workshop Studio/Any Other Eclipse IDE for JSF is MyFaces ( whatever it may be).
    What are the differences between these two? which one is better ?
    I get confused why there are two different framework of JSF?
    And I dont think there is any other IDE who supports Rave other than Java Studio Creator?
    Thx.

    Apologies for the late reply, but currently what exists generally for MyFaces integration with Creator is on this blog:

  • Differences between Java Web Start and HTML-Applets???

    Hi,
    I'm trying to get information about the differences between JWS-Applets and 'normal' HTML-embedded Applets.
    Is it possible to develop both simultaneously in one project???
    Is there a Programming-documentation that describes the differences between JWS and HTML-Applets???
    Thanx!
    Rembrand

    Check out the link shown below:

    All you need really is to create a JNLP file to launch your applet/application.

  • Difference between java page flow and java process definition

    I have joined a BEA WebLogic Integration project as an entry level BEA developer. I have a big question on the real difference between a jpf and a jpd. My co-workers say there is actually no difference, but I don't believe so. I think a jpd is more like a back-end process and it may or may not not need a View(MVC). While a jpf is the Controller(MVC) and is closely related to a web-based application where all the navigation logic(and only navigation logic) resides. A jpf normally should have a View(rendered on browser or other terminals) to present data from Model. I strongly believe this is true. But my project manager and my team lead, both are very technical guys, fiercely object to my understanding. I am extremely curious to have input from the BEA community on this fundamental concept.

    I find it hard to believe your team lead really believes there is no difference between a JPF and a JPD. There are numerous differences, both conceptually and technically.
    I believe your understanding of the differing roles of the two is correct. A JPF would represent the view of an application, and a JPD would represent callable services of an application, and server-side business logic.
    From the technical point of view, a JPF, assuming it avoided certain features, can be deployed on Tomcat. The core of it is a pure servlet application. A JPD is an EJB, either a SLSB or a SFSB.

  • Difference between Java Server Faces and Apache Struts

    Hi ,
    I'm quite new to Java Server Faces and Apache Struts. I wonder are they two comparable Frameworks for web presentation?

    Thanks

    Hello,
    very simple: JAXP is part of the JRE only since 1.4 and is not included in 1.3. You can download JAXP at http://java.sun.com/webservices/jaxp/ and include the JARs in your classpath to get the XML functionality for Java 1.3.

  • Differences between Java Servlet and Portlets

    Hello,
    May anyone let me know the differences between Java Servlet, JavaBeans and Portlets? It seems quite similar to each other... By the way, what are differences between a servlet container and portlet container? Thank you.
    Charoite

    JavaBeans are totally different from servlets or portlets. JavaBeans can be used in just about any environment. A JavaBean is basically a java class with a no-arg constructor which follows certain naming conventions for its get and set methods.
    Servlets can only function in an "web containers" which are provided by application servers which support servlets. The main function of servlets is to process requests (usually http requests) and generate output (usually web pages). They usually perform validation and other processing and then delegate the web page generation to a jsp.
    Portlets are similar to servlets but rather than generating an entire web page, their output is relegated to a portion of a page. A single web page may contain the output of several portlets. These portlets can communicate with each other. The portlet container provides the functionality to merge the output of the various portlets and the infastructure required to support the portlets.

  • Whats is difference between Java JRE  and  Java SDK

    Hi,
    what is the difference between Java JRE and Java SDK...
    i think both of them have the same set of files to be installed...
    I am not able to understand where they differ

    The JRE (Java runtime Environment) contains just the stuff necessary to run Java and the SDK (System Development Kit) contains the extra stuff necessary (and also helpful) to develop in Java.

  • What's the difference between Java SDK and the Enterprise Edition?

    What's the difference between Java SDK and the Enterprise Edition? Are they both free?

    both r free but they are used in diffrent applications. sdk are used for simple apps that run on your computer while j2e (enterprise edition) are ment for large distributed computer systems that include servers and such. if you don't know the diffrence you probably wont need the the j2e, only the sdk.

  • Do I need Java 8 or should i disable it? What happens if i disable it? And what is the difference between Java and Java Runtime?

    Do I need Java 8 or should I disable it? What happens if i disable it? And what is the difference between Java and Java Runtime?

    There's no difference. They're both runtime plug-ins (they run when an app calls for Java functions).
    You only need Java if you either have Java apps on your Mac that won't run without having it installed, or you use trusted web sites that require Java to function (getting fewer and far between). Otherwise, you have no need for it at all.
