JDK is the old name for the SDK.

    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.

    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 / 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

    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.
    To get you started, here is an excellent resource: The Java� Glossary

  • 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

    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).

  • What's the difference between Netscape SDK for Java & JNDI?

    I know I can use either JNDI or Netscape SDK to access iDS. So whats their differences basically?
    Why would I need JNDI/Netscape SDK if I can just use either of them to access iDS?
    Thanks!

    Netscape SDK for JAVA developed only for iplanet Directory Server but JNDI for any directory server.
    JNDI has classes provided by Sun that will help your application interact with an LDAP server.JNDI applications work similarly to JDBC applications - write applications once and be free to use "drivers" from different vendors. Sun provides the "driver" that will help interact with the LDAP server. Sun also provides "drivers" for other naming services (like CORBA, Netscape).
    The Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) allows Java applications to use a single set of methods to access multiple naming and directory services such as LDAP and NIS.
    JNDI is a Java API that provides a common way for programmers to access a variety of naming and directory services. The API consists of several packages:
    javax.naming for naming operations (access entries)
    javax.naming.directory for directory operations (access attributes)
    javax.naming.event for requesting event notification
    javax.naming.ldap for LDAP-specific features.
    JNDI operates through a layer of software called a Service Provider. The Service Provider implements the JNDI operations in terms of a particular underlying protocol.
    JNDI's Service Provider Interface (SPI) allows you to select Service Providers at runtime. In many cases you can use the same JNDI methods regardless of whether the Service Provider is talking to an LDAP server or using another protocol such as NIS. In order to access all of the functionality of the LDAP protocol, however, you will have to use methods outside of this abstraction.

  • 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.

    i am confused - - does jdk come combined with
    netbeans ?JDK is Java Development Kit. It includes all the Java APIs and Java tools like compiler etc so that you can develop code in Java language.
    NetBeans is an IDE (Integrated Development Environment). It provides you tools for helping you write Java code, like it provides you a text editor where you can type your java code etc. You can use any other IDE like Eclipse JCreator etc for writing java code.
    NetBeans should come packaged with a JDK. NetBeans requires JDK to function but JDK does not require NetBeans to function.
    Personally, if you are so new to the language then I would recommend that you stay away from NetBeans or any other other heavy IDE for a while and code in something like WordPad or some of the other editors recommended in this thread. This will help you learn the language better. You can latter decide on an IDE when you are comfortable with the language.
