Definitely not true in my experience. The only difference I've noticed is that the Sun one forces you to manually download some jars in order to get strong crypto because of some outdated US legal BS, while openJDK bundles them.
- crosvenir 16y agoThe last time I used the openJDK on ubuntu was version 9.10 and then JGoodies LaF looked abysmal. Well, by abysmal I mean that the openJDK inserted spacing between most components and the sun JDK looked consistent with the rendering on Windows and AIX.
- technomancy 16y agoHmm; I haven't done any GUI work with OpenJDK, but now that you mention it I do remember some caveats about the font rendering engine being one of the pieces that they were having difficult tracking down provenance on for open-sourcing.
