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.

Would anybody just show the difference between JDK , JRE , J2EE , and J2RE
Thanks alotJDK - 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 / JRE?
Hi All,
What is the difference between JDK / JRE. ?
Is it enough if I installed JDK 5.0 Update 16 Only or Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 5.0 Update 16 is also needed.
I as in the assumption that JDK 5.0 Update 16 contains the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 5.0 Update 16.
Let me know the jdk which comes along with it jre.
Thanks

No, seriously: Of course JDK 5.0 Update 16 contains the JRE 5.0 Update 16. -

thanksHi,
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. -

plzz tell me in detailIt'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.

Whatz the difference between jdk and jre
i would like to know the difference between jdk and jre.
Yes JRE is Java Run Time Environment. The java programming language adds the portability by converting the source code to byte code version which can be interpreted by the JRE and gets converted to the platform specific executable ones. Thus for different platforms one has corresponding implementation of JRE. But JRE has to meet the specification JVM (Java Virtual Machine) Concept that serves as a link between the Java libraries and the platform specific implementation of JRE. Thus JVM helps in the abstraction of inner implementation from the programmers who make use of libraries for their programmes.
The JDK(Java Developmental Tool kit) comes along with java libraries and JVM embedded in it. Apart from these it comes along with the utility tools for byte code compilation "javac", Executing the byte codes through java programmes through "java" and many more utilities found in the binary directory of java. Speaking practically JDK is essential for developers, which comes along with library packages to develop Software programmes. While JRE is minimal set of programmes which executes the java class files developed by the software developers. -

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 differThe 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.

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
WayneThis 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). -

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. -
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.
