Java 2 SDK for Solaris

The Java 2 SDK, Standard Edition version 1.2.1_04, provides substantially increased scalability and performance compared to the 1.1 releases, especially for server-class applications. The Java 2 SDK for Solaris includes these enhancements:

• Improved scalability

• Improved class libraries, including the new Java 2 APIs

• Enhanced memory management system

• High-performance, scalable Java Virtual Machine (JVM)

• Just-In-Time (JIT) compiler optimizations

• Faster Java thread synchronization

Java 2 has replaced JDK 1.1 as the default JDK in the Solaris 8 operating environment. JDK 1.1.8_09 is still available for applications that encounter incompatibility with the default Java 2 JDK.
