Microsoft Java
- neozeed 15y agoYes Microsoft made a JAVA compiler and runtime, NO it is not a new product, as a matter of fact Microsoft cannot redistribute it at all. But back in the day it was a very exciting thing to have JVM's from SUN, Microsoft and IBM... Its kind of funny how nobody thinks twice about Solaris containing Java, OS/2, and how Microsoft got pushed out of the market for trying to co-opt Java.
- kls 15y agoRight you had to be very careful when writing an app in Visual J++ as it always ended up using Microsoft UI libraries only available on the Microsoft JVM.
