The release on december 8, 1998 and subsequent releases through j2se 5.0 were rebranded retrospectively java 2 and the version name j2se (java 2 platform, standard edition) replaced jdk to distinguish the base platform from j2ee (java 2 platform, enterprise edition) and j2me (java 2 platform, micro edition). The icedtea project started with two aims To make it possible for the gnu compiler for java to compile the openjdk code Openjdk presented a bootstrapping question of itself being written in java Originally, only the existing proprietary sun jdk met that requirement Timemachine is a set of tools for optimizing and debugging c and c++ software
[14][15] timemachine (introduced 2003) supports reverse debugging, [16] a feature that later also became available in the free gnu debugger (gdb) 7.0 (2009). This list of jvm languages comprises notable computer programming languages that are used to produce computer software that runs on the java virtual machine (jvm) The jvm was initially designed to. Not every method that gets called by an application is compiled Instead, openj9 records the number of times a method is called and triggers jit compilation at a predefined threshold. Starting with xcode 4.2, the clang compiler became the default compiler, [17] starting with xcode 5.0, clang was the only compiler provided
