Java Card 3 Platform Development Kit User Guide, Classic Edition

Preface

This document describes how to use the Java Card 3 Platform, Classic Edition Development Kit, version 3.0.5 to develop classic applets.

Java Card technology combines a subset of the Java programming language with a runtime environment optimized for smart cards and similar small-memory embedded devices. The goal of Java Card technology is to bring many of the benefits of the Java programming language to the resource-constrained world of smart cards.

The Java Card API is compatible with international standards such as ISO 7816, and industry-specific standards such as Europay, Master Card, and Visa (EMV).

Note:

The Java Card 3 platform development kit is released in both binary and source bundles. The bundles intended solely for U.S. distribution include cryptography extensions. Portions of this document are targeted toward specific release bundles and are identified as such throughout this book.
