Peace_Angel Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Well I have heard about it and have seen it in access and defaults but I don't really know what is Java Virtual Machine.You need JVM to run java program on your PC because the Java compiler doesn't produce a real executable but a bytecode version of your program. Think of the JVM as an an interpreter that interpretes the java bytecode much like an old browser interpretes HTML in a page to render the page.JVM is similar to the .NET Framework CLR. Program compiled for .NET do not run on a computer that doesn't have the framework installed because the EXE produced by the Compiler is basically MSIL (Microsoft Intermediate Language) - like java bytecode in a way - that only the framework can understand.The simple answer is that for you to have a java program running, you have to have Java Virtual Machine installed on your PC.JRE (Java Runtime Environment) contains the JVM.Peace.

Administrator DKT27 Posted July 6, 2009 Administrator Share Posted July 6, 2009 OK. I don't really think it will have(the news) any impact on Microsoft Windows users. Java will update the same way. People will use it the same way. For normal use for flash player etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
