Java(TM) Platform, Standard Edition
|
|
|
|
|
Runtime Environment
|
|
|
|
|
Version 6
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Java(TM) Platform, Standard Edition Runtime Environment (JRE(TM)),
|
|
|
|
|
excluding the JavaFX(TM) runtime, is intended for software developers
|
|
|
|
|
and vendors to redistribute with their applications.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Java SE Runtime Environment contains the Java virtual machine,
|
|
|
|
|
runtime class libraries, and Java application launcher that are
|
|
|
|
|
necessary to run programs written in the Java programming language.
|
|
|
|
|
It is not a development environment and does not contain development
|
|
|
|
|
tools such as compilers or debuggers. For development tools, see the
|
|
|
|
|
Java SE Development Kit (JDK(TM)). The JRE installation triggers the
|
|
|
|
|
download of the JavaFX runtime. The JavaFX runtime is also available
|
|
|
|
|
separately, and is not part of the JRE. For information on JavaFX, and
|
|
|
|
|
how to make changes, go to: http://java.com/javafx

Deploying Applications with the Java SE Runtime Environment
|

=======================================================================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When you deploy an application written in the Java programming
|
|
|
|
|
language, your software bundle will probably consist of the following
|
|
|
|
|
parts:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Your own class, resource, and data files.
|
|
|
|
|
The Java SE Runtime Environment.
|
|
|
|
|
An installation procedure or program.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You already have the first part, of course. The remainder of this
|
|
|
|
|
document covers the other two parts. See also the Notes for Developers
|
|

Java Platform, Standard Edition Runtime Environment (JRE)
|
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To run your application, a user needs the Java SE Runtime Environment,
|
|
|
|
|
which is freely available from Sun. Or, you can redistribute the
|
|
|
|
|
Java SE Runtime Environment for free with your application, according
|
|
|
|
|
to the terms of the Java SE Platform Runtime Environment's license. The
|
|
|
|
|
JavaFX runtime is only required to run applications written in the
|
|
|
|
|
JavaFX scripting language; it is freely available from Sun, and must
|
|
|
|
|
not be redistributed with your application.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The final step in the deployment process occurs when the software is
|
|
|
|
|
installed on an individual user's system. Installation consists of copying
|
|
|
|
|
software onto the user's system, then configuring the user's system
|
|
|
|
|
to support that software. You should ensure that your installation
|
|
|
|
|
procedure does not overwrite existing JRE installations, as they may
|
|
|
|
|
be required by other applications.

Required vs. Optional Files
|
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The files that make up the Java SE Runtime Environment are divided into
|
|
|
|
|
two categories: required and optional. Optional files may be excluded
|
|
|
|
|
from redistributions of the Java SE Runtime Environment at the
|
|
|
|
|
vendor's discretion.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following section contains a list of the files and directories that
|
|
|
|
|
may optionally be omitted from redistributions with the Java SE Runtime
|
|
|
|
|
Environment. All files not in these lists of optional files must be
|
|
|
|
|
included in redistributions of the runtime environment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
Optional Files and Directories
|
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following files may be optionally excluded from redistributions.
|
|
|
|
|
These files are located in the jre1.6.0_<version> directory, where
|
|
|
|
|
<version> is the update version number. Solaris and Linux filenames
|
|
|
|
|
and separators are shown. Windows executables have the ".exe" suffix.
|
|
|
|
|
Corresponding files with _g in the name can also be excluded.
|
|
|
|
|
The corresponding man pages should be excluded for any excluded
|
|
|
|
|
executables (with paths listed below beginning with bin/ ,
|
|
|
|
|
for the Solaris(TM) Operating System and Linux).

Redistributable JDK(TM) Files
|
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The limited set of files from the Java SE Development Kit (JDK)
|
|
|
|
|
listed below may be included in vendor redistributions of the Java SE
|
|
|
|
|
Runtime Environment. All paths are relative to the top-level
|
|
|
|
|
directory of the JDK. The corresponding man pages should be included for
|
|
|
|
|
any included executables (with paths listed below beginning with bin/ ,
|
|
|
|
|
for the Solaris(TM) Operating System and Linux).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
jre/lib/cmm/PYCC.pf
|
|
|
|
|
Color profile. This file is required only if one wishes to
|
|
|
|
|
convert between the PYCC color space and another color space.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All .ttf font files in the jre/lib/fonts directory.
|
|
|
|
|
Note that the LucidaSansRegular.ttf font is already contained
|
|
|
|
|
in the Java SE Runtime Environment, so there is no need to
|
|
|
|
|
bring that file over from the JDK.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
jre/lib/audio/soundbank.gm
|
|
|
|
|
This MIDI soundbank is present in the JDK, but it has
|
|
|
|
|
been removed from the Java SE Runtime Environment in order to
|
|
|
|
|
reduce the size of the Runtime Environment's download bundle.
|
|
|
|
|
However, a soundbank file is necessary for MIDI playback, and
|
|
|
|
|
therefore the JDK's soundbank.gm file may be included in
|
|
|
|
|
redistributions of the Runtime Environment at the vendor's
|
|
|
|
|
discretion. Several versions of enhanced MIDI soundbanks are
|
|
|
|
|
available from the Java Sound web site:
|
|
|
|
|
http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/sound/
|
|
|
|
|
These alternative soundbanks may be included in redistributions
|
|
|
|
|
of the Java SE Runtime Environment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The javac bytecode compiler, consisting of the following files:

The Jconsole application. NOTE: The Jconsole application requires
|
|
|
|
|
the dynamic attach mechanism.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The dynamic attach mechanism consisting of the following files:

jre\bin\server\
|
|
|
|
|
On Microsoft Windows platforms, the JDK includes both
|
|
|
|
|
the Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM and Java HotSpot Client VM.
|
|
|
|
|
However, the Java SE Runtime Environment for Microsoft Windows
|
|
|
|
|
platforms includes only the Java HotSpot Client VM. Those wishing
|
|
|
|
|
to use the Java HotSpot Server VM with the Java SE Runtime
|
|
|
|
|
Environment may copy the JDK's jre\bin\server folder to a
|
|
|
|
|
bin\server directory in the Java SE Runtime Environment. Software
|
|
|
|
|
vendors may redistribute the Java HotSpot Server VM with their
|
|
|
|
|
redistributions of the Java SE Runtime Environment.

Unlimited Strength Java Cryptography Extension
|
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Due to import control restrictions for some countries, the Java
|
|
|
|
|
Cryptography Extension (JCE) policy files shipped with the Java SE
|
|
|
|
|
Development Kit and the Java SE Runtime Environment allow strong but
|
|
|
|
|
limited cryptography to be used. These files are located at
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<java-home>/lib/security/local_policy.jar
|
|
|
|
|
<java-home>/lib/security/US_export_policy.jar
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
where <java-home> is the jre directory of the JDK or the
|
|
|
|
|
top-level directory of the Java SE Runtime Environment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
An unlimited strength version of these files indicating no restrictions
|
|
|
|
|
on cryptographic strengths is available on the JDK web site for
|
|
|

Endorsed Standards Override Mechanism
|
|
|
|
|
=======================================================================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
From time to time it is necessary to update the Java platform in order
|
|
|
|
|
to incorporate newer versions of standards that are created outside of
|
|
|
|
|
the Java Community Process(SM) (JCP(SM) http://www.jcp.org/) (Endorsed
|
|
|
|
|
Standards), or in order to update the version of a technology included
|
|
|
|
|
in the platform to correspond to a later standalone version of that
|
|
|
|
|
technology (Standalone Technologies).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Endorsed Standards Override Mechanism provides a means whereby
|
|
|
|
|
later versions of classes and interfaces that implement Endorsed
|
|
|
|
|
Standards or Standalone Technologies may be incorporated into the Java
|
|
|
|
|
Platform.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
override, see
