1.Overview of the Java Language
? What Is the Java™ Technology?
Java technology is:
• A programming language
• A development environment
• An application environment
• A deployment environment
• It is similar in syntax to C++.
• It is used for developing both applets and applications.
Java is an object-oriented programming language developed by Sun Microsystems. Originally the developers of Java intended to use C++ for their software development. But they needed a language that could execute on different sets of computer chips to accommodate the ever-changing consumer electronics market. So they decided to design their own language which would be independent of the underlying hardware.
It allows a user to receive software from a remote system and execute it on a local system, regardless of the underlying hardware or operating system. An interpreter and runtime are called the Java Virtual Machine which insulates the software from the underlying hardware.
Unlike more traditional languages, Java source code does not get translated into the machine instructions for a particular computer platform. Instead, Java source code (.java) is compiled into an intermediate form called bytecodes which are stored in a .class file. These bytecodes can be executed on any computer system that implements a Java Virtual Machine (JVM). This portability is perhaps one of the most compelling features of the Java language, from a commercial perspective. In the current era of cross-platform application development, any tool that allows programmers to write code once and execute it on many platforms is going to get attention.
