It’s been a while when I received some of the subscription from free resource
talking about the Java updates and many.
I realized that Sun has been taken over by Oracle.
And so Java is now in their control.
Last info I received, is that Java 7 is openly released with its API for public.
And I am interested to grab it on! But, here I’m a bit wondering.
Firstly, about Java 6.
It is located on the Oracle website….
But Java 7 is not stored there.
Instead, it is stored in a different location… on the java.net website.
Actually, why is it separated like that?
Wouldn’t it be great if Java 7 was already stored at Oracle also?
It is not BETA anymore, is it ?
Hopefully there’s a bit of light for me regarding these questions….
Java 7 has not been released yet. If everything goes according to schedule, it will be released in a few days.
Since it is not released, any version of Java 7 you might encounter must be a Beta release, (or worse yet, an Alpha release). That said, the process by which Java 7 was put together was quite open, which is the reason that you’ve probably seen news articles about the contents of Java 7, even though Java 7 isn’t really available yet.
