Java

Java is a platform-independent programming language offering a portable and secure means of enhancing Web development


The rapid speed of developments on the Internet has spawned a new language which can do much more than merely enhance a Web page with animation sequences. On the one hand, Java consists of a virtual machine (JVM), a runtime environment which is largely platform-independent. on the other hand, Java is a modern, object-oriented programming language which was developed on the basis of C++ and Smalltalk.

The main advantages of Java can be summed up as follows:
- Java is platform-independent and portable
- Java applications are secure
- The syntax of Java is simple
- Java is object-oriented
- Java is very robust
- Java programs are interpreted
- Java is dynamic
- Java is multithreaded

Java was developed by Sun Microsystems and is available in different editions:
  • Java Development Kit JDK™: It consists of a runtime environment, which "sits on top" of the operating system layer and also consists of components for developing Java programs.

  • Java™ 2 SDK, Standard Edition (J2SE) is the successor of JDK™.

  • Java™ Enterprise Edition (J2EE) supports a server-based computing architecture simplifying complex enterprise solutions by providing a unified platform for the development, management and deployment of enterprise-class software in corporate environments.
