Message-ID: <6d667969-7655-4a15-b6ed-c76a09341bd3@sun.com> Today begins the next phase for Java. I am pleased to announce that we have completed the open source release of Open JDK. It's a great day for innovation - and remember, compatibility matters!

The goal of this code is to remove the dependency on X or other graphics layers such that graphics can be redirected to a framebuffer (e.g. a raw buffer, VNC, etc.). This example implementation will prefer pure-Java solutions, with public extension points available to enter native resources as necessary. In prototyping this functionality with OpenJDK it should be possible demonstrate this graphics redirection via a command line such as: % java -Dawt.toolkit=net.java.openjdk.fbtoolkit.Toolkit -jar myApp.jar NOTE: there are many other options which one would want to specify (e.g. bit depth, encoding, geometry, port number, etc.) and these can all be collected into a properties file which is implicitly named (based upon the provider) or overridden on the command line. Examples of usage include: implementation debugging, device emulation, multiple-head clone outputs/inputs, simultaneous multiple-peer output, etc. As this proposal is most closely related to the AWT [2] and Swing [3] groups they have been added on CC: and as such we would like to request sponsorship from these groups. Please note that per the interim OpenJDK guidelines for Projects [4] that followups should go the discuss list [5]. Thank you for your consideration, --Tom & Steph [1] Steph is a Participant Steph's blog: http://blog.tangency.co.uk/ java.net ident: twiun [2] the AWT Group: http://openjdk.java.net/groups/awt/ [3] the Swing Group: http://openjdk.java.net/groups/swing/ [4] Proposing Projects: http://openjdk.java.net/projects/ [5] discuss: http://mail.openjdk.java.net/mailman/listinfo/discuss From alexanderschunk at t-online.de Fri May 25 04:20:00 2007 From: alexanderschunk at t-online.de (Alexander Schunk) Date: 25 May 2007 11:20 GMT Subject: New OpenJDK Project: LinalgAlg and Statistics API Message-ID: <1hrxpv-0bwwhs0@fwd30.sul.t-online.de> i would like to propose two new OpenJDK libraries: JLinAlg and JProb. The LinAlg API extends the functionality of the java.lang.math library and offers classes for Vector, Matrix and Complex calculations. The Statistics API offers classes for statistic calculations. These packages can be added to Java via the extension mechanism so these are extended APIs. Best Regards Alexander Schunk -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
