From Java Tutorial - Spring 1997 Part 1:Introduction to Java Language Peking Tutorial, Web Certificate -- Spring-Summer 1997. by Nancy J. McCracken,Geoffrey C. Fox


Version 1.0 of JDK released January 96 by JavaSoft
1.0 JDK should be the Internet standard and so compatible with ongoing Java implementations by all licensees, most notably Netscape. Beta/1.0 JDK includes:
  • Java Compiler (.java to .class) for Sun Solaris and Windows NT/95 avaliable as .class itself (Javac written in Java) but no source
  • Java source for the foundation classes (modified and incompatible with alpha)
  • appletviewer to run/preview applets
  • tools for converting alpha applets to beta applets.
  • Source code for the interpreter
Java 1.1 in Spring 97 has yet more improvements
