<p>This is the official port of Sun's &java; Development Kit for
FreeBSD. No known significant bugs exist at this time, but there
are no guarantees of usability. However, many commercial companies
rely on this port, so it should be safe to use.</p>
<p>The &openjdk; project provides an open-source implementation of the &java;
SE Platform and is available in versions 6 and 7 for all supported
FreeBSD releases on the i386 and amd64 platforms. Both versions can be
installed by building from sources using the FreeBSD Ports Collection
(<code>openjdk6</code> and <code>openjdk7</code>, respectively) and
are also distributed as a prebuilt binary package via the FreeBSD mirrors
and can be installed directly using <code>pkg_add(1)</code>.</p>
<p>The <a href="http://www.FreeBSDFoundation.org/">FreeBSD
Foundation</a> has negotiated a license with Sun Microsystems to
distribute FreeBSD binaries for the Java Runtime Environment
(JRE&trade;) and Java Development Kit (&jdk;).</p>
<p>&openjdk; is the recommended &java; implementation on FreeBSD.
The FreeBSD Foundation is no longer providing supported &java; &jdk; and
&jre; packages based on Sun's partner sources. Older packages for &java;
&jdk; and &jre; 5.0 and 6.0 are still available below for reference and
legacy use only, but are no longer supported.</p>
<p>The current release of the JDK and JRE available via the FreeBSD
Foundation is 1.6.0-7. These binaries have been tested and
certified to run with 6.3-RELEASE and 7.0-RELEASE (&os;/i386 and
&os;/amd64) but may also work with other 6.X/7.X releases
(&os;/i386 and &os;/amd64). Packages for JDK/JRE 1.5.0 are still
available for download although they are not supported any longer.</p>
<p>For further information about downloading the JDK and JRE
binaries for FreeBSD, please see the <a
href="http://www.FreeBSDFoundation.org/downloads/java.shtml">FreeBSD
Foundation Java Downloads</a> page.</p>
<p>Further information about downloading the unsupported binaries is
available from the
<a href="http://www.FreeBSDFoundation.org/downloads/java.shtml">FreeBSD
Foundation &java; Downloads</a> page.</p>
