Blackdown java and offical sun java
Is the blackdown java JDK compatible with the offical sun microsystems version of java. ie I can develop applications using both of them. As at uni I use sun but at home I use blackdown. The sun micorsystems amd64 bit version doesn't come with a browser plugin.

Well for one thing Blackdown only has Java 1.4, while Sun uses Java 1.5; so you may want to be careful about that.

but as long as am careful about the functions am using then it's ok then right?

As far as I know, Blackdown Java is not a different JVM implementation, but is actually Sun's code ported to Linux.
It was interesting before Sun released JREs/JDKs for Linux too, but these days I'm wondering if there is really a difference (outside differing subrelease version numbering, and Java 5.0 and 6.0 missing in Blackdown). |
