J2SE™ Development Kit (JDK) 5.0-6
The JDK 5.0-6 kit is based on Sun Microsystems' Java™ 2 Platform Standard Edition (J2SE) 1.5.0_20 Solaris Reference Release and implements the J2SE 5.0 (a.k.a. 1.5.0). For 5.0, Sun Microsystems has reverted to the terminology JDK and JRE. It passes all the tests in Sun's Java Compatibility Kit test suite.

The JDK includes the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) although the JRE is also available as a separate kit.

The JDK 5.0-6 kit is available for OpenVMS Alpha Version 8.2 and higher.

This kit requires operating system patches (ECOs). For detailed patch information, see the JDK 5.0 patch installation page.

J2SE™ Runtime Environment (JRE) 5.0-6
The JRE is targeted primarily for developers who want to bundle the JRE with their applications for redistribution. The JRE is included with the JDK but please note that redistribution of the JDK is not permitted. Information for developers who redistribute the JRE with their software can be found in the JRE documentation.

The JRE requires the same operating system patches (ECOs) as the JDK.
