Java

Platform for the development and execution of applications.

Virtual machines allow us to launch applications regardless of the platform on which we are, which has meant a real advantage when it comes to software development. Java is a type of code that allows the execution of its applications under a virtual machine, in this case known as JRE or Java Runtime Environment, the real-time execution environment of this programing language.

High performance, portability, versatility and stability are the advantages of a software application developed with Java.

If you are thinking about starting to develop Java applications, you have to download this pack of APIs by means of the Development Kits, the set of essential development tools.

Versions

Java SE Runtime Environment includes all sorts of utilities and improvements to make the development of web services and applications easier. It also includes features that optimise the performance and the correction of bugs and errors. In any case, the Java virtual machine and the development APIs have three different versions depending on the needs of the programmer:

• Java SE (Standard Edition): for the development of web applications.
• Java ME (Micro Edition): contains all the development APIs for mobile terminals.
• Java EE (Enterprise Edition): for the development of applications in business environments and that are compatible with various operating systems and platforms.

The interpreter for your creations

The function of a virtual machine is to act as an interpreter between the computer on which your are working and the code to be executed. Java has become one of the essential programing languages for mobile devices and the web, and that is why all developers require a virtual machine.
