Hi All,
I have simple query what is the exact difference
between SDK ad JDK.
Thanks,
AlokThere is actually no difference. Two different names
referring to the same thing.
You may want to look at this:

well, there are many SDKs for things other than Java, so the definition of J(s)DK is a subdefinition of SDK :)

  • What are the differences between api and sdk

    Hi,
    Could anybody clarify for me what are the difference between API and SDK? I googled for the answer, and couldn't find any thing on this topic.
    Many thanks in advance.

    Is it correct to say that "a SDK includes all the
    APIs"? or "API sits on top of the SDK"?It's a bit weird to say either. First, the JDK doesn't include all APIs. Just the J2SE core API. Others, like 3rd party libraries or J2EE are not included. Second, if you mean the API docs, they're also not included IIRC.
    It'd technically only be correct to say "the SDK provides an API", I guess. The example is very lame, but: if the SDK is a machine, the API is the sum of its buttons and levers and gauges and intakes and outlets and exhausts. The API docs are the manual.

  • Difference between JDK , JRE J2EE

    Hi
    Would anybody just show the difference between JDK , JRE , J2EE , and J2RE
    Thanks alot

    JDK - Java SDK from Sun
    JRE - Java Runtime Environment
    J2EE - Java 2 Enterprise Edition
    Basically, JDK is J2SE, Java Standard Edition. You need this to develop and to compile standard Java software. JRE allows only execution without any special components. J2EE is extension to J2SE. It contains Business or Enterprise components like Java Beans.

  • What is the difference between jdk and jsdk

    I don't know the difference between jdk and jsdk,if i had set up the jdk,could i develope the servlet.

    For servlets you need J2EE classes, which are in what is usually called JSDK (Java Server Development Kit). So, you cannot compile servlets with just the JDK installed, you need to download the J2EE SDK.

  • What is the difference between jdk version 1.3.1-b24 and 1.3.1_02-b02?

    Hi,
    This is a weird question. But I really need to know the difference between jdk vesion 1.3.1-b24 and 1.3.1_02-b02.
    Anyone has a clue?
    Thanks
    Wayne

    This is a weird question. But I really need to know
    the difference between jdk vesion 1.3.1-b24 and
    1.3.1_02-b02.Bug fixes only.
    When reading the strings above, ignore the part saying "-b##" (that's the build number). So you're looking at 1.3.1 (the base release), and 1.3.1_02 (patch 02 on 1.3.1).

    JDK- Java Development Kit contains compiler and other appliction development tools. with this tool you can compile as well as run your application
    JRE-Java runtime Environment where Java applications are exceuted .You can only run your application here but you cant develop and compile.
    JVM-Java Virtual Machine Its interpretor which interprets and then executes you coded after it is compile ( to byte code) by Java Compiler.

  • Difference between JDK/JRE

    Guys,
    I need to know the difference between JDK and JRE? When should one use JDK and when one should use JRE. What is the advantages/disadvantages of using one over other.
    Cheers,

    Shutt up guys... one person is to know some thing about JDK/JRE, and you.....
    Any way
    Hi tnischal!
    Your question was about JDK/JRE
    JDK = Java Development Kit
    JRE = Java Runtime Environment
    JRE is a comolete Setup of J2sdk1.4.1(LatestVersion of JDK(1.4.1) with other requirements to use this version included JDK1.4.1,JavaWebStart,SunJVM,Java2PlatForm, and all other needs for it.
    while JDK is only the Software Development Kit. Previous versions of JDK than V1.4.1 did not need the all Runtime Environment for JDK, You just copy the JDK Folder in your machine and use it
    But you can't use JDK1.4.1(fully) without other requirements of use it.
    Hope you got the difference now.

    Could someone explain, in simple terms, what is the

    A JDK is a set of tools for Java development including compiler, runtime system and standard libraries. J2EE is the enterprise version of the Java technology platform (it's one of three). To use it you download the proper JDK's.

    plzz tell me in detail

    It's an extremely important skill to learn how to search the web. Not only will it increase your research and development talents, it will also save you from asking questions that have already been answered numerous times before. By doing a little research before you ask a question, you'll show that you're willing to work and learn without needing to have your hand held the entire time; a quality that is seemingly rare but much appreciated by the volunteers who are willing to help you.
    If you've done the research, found nothing useful, and decide to post your question, it's a great idea to tell us that you've already searched (and what methodologies you used to do your research). That way, we don't refer you back to something you've already seen.
