JVM for Linux

2001-08-17 Thread BERNARDES,JOAN (Non-HP-Brazil,ex1)

Hi all,
Somebody knows what is the best JVM for Linux? I mean a JVM that is
fast, small and support Swing.
There is any restriction in use the Sun JVM? You have to give the
source of your application to them if it is a commercial application using
their JVM?
Thanks,

All three of the 1.3.x JVMs (Blackdown, Sun, IBM) work and support
Swing. None of them is small. The "best" one is one that doesn't break
your application.

No, not at all. The restrictions you're talking about have to do with
licensing their JVM source and extending it. The restrictions on using
any of the releases are:

- The SDK is not freely redistributable.

- The JRE is freely redistributable. If you redistribute it, you must
  redistribute the entire JRE, except for specific parts you are allowed
  to exclude (which are listed in the license).
