Java in XPe

[Carlos Vieira]

Can I add MSJVM (or other Java VM) to my XPe image and consequently
redistribute it to my customers? Or is it no legal?

 

[Brad Combs]

Carlos,

MS may want to hop in here, but I'm pretty sure you need to stay away from
JVM all together in your runtimes. I was asked to remove the JVM component
from www.xpefiles.com so I would think it's a no-no.

You can however componentize the Sun Java Browser applet and apply that to
your runtimes.

HTH,

Hi Brad,

After this:

I think that things may be different in the future.

a.. Microsoft Support for Java: The companies have agreed that Microsoft may
continue to provide product support for the Microsoft Java Virtual Machine
that customers have deployed in Microsoft's products.

I wonder if I can add the JVM component back into XpeFiles.

I'll contact the lawyer types and find out.

Thanks for the link!
