: JVM is a generic term, see [[Java virtual machine]]. JRE specifically refers to Sun's product, comprising their own JVM implementation and their own Java API implementation. [[User:Smyth|&ndash; [[User:Smyth|Smyth]]]] 13:13, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)

The complaints about collections and casting etc in this section are out of date with the generics & auto-unboxing in v1.5 (which are discussed in following section) and I can't see any other point in that section but have a feeling that if I removed it, it would be replaced. Anyone care to fix it? {{unsigned2<small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Jaybee|Jaybee]] ([[User talk:Jaybee|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Jaybee|contribs]]) 18:30, 12 November 2004|Jaybee}}</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned -->
 
: Not neccesarily everyone uses Java 1.5 and thus the prblems still remain. Of couse, adding some mention that they were fixed with the release of 1.5 would be nice. -- [[User:TakuyaMurata|Taku]] 18:57, Nov 12, 2004 (UTC)

<blockquote>Java is an object-oriented programming language developed primarily by Sun Microsystems. Gosling and friends initially designed Java, which was called Oak at first (in honour of the trees outside Gosling's office), to replace C++, although the feature set better resembles that of Objective C.</blockquote>

: While probably not common amongst English speakers, I've heard Java pronounced as {{IPA|/java/}} (in the Netherlands and Poland) (ie. English spelling 'yava'), matching local pronounciation of the coffee-bean. How consistant is this with the Javanese pronounciation? And how common is this pronounciation in europe?

: What is the point of the "Related free software" section, anyway? ISTM it is just bloat that does not add much to the article; at best, it should be moved to a separate article. Objections to me just removing it? [[User:Neilc|Neilc]] 05:18, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
Line 145:
I've pulled the following paragraph from the section on interfaces and classes (sorry I forgot to sign in before making the change):
 
<blockquote>Methods defined by an interface are implicitly <ttcode>public</ttcode> and <ttcode>abstract</ttcode>. Fields defined by an interface are implicitly <ttcode>public</ttcode>, <ttcode>static</ttcode>, and <ttcode>final</ttcode>.</blockquote>
 
Without explanations of the meanings of public, abstract, static, and final, this paragraph adds little value. But, adding the explanations would be adding detail, and this paragraph seems to already be too much detail. [[User:Mark Harrison|Mark Harrison]] 06:28, 11 August 2005 (UTC)
Line 157:
Other bad examples include the deleteAll method. It should use a List instead of an array and should use a for each loop.
