Getting Started

Java^TM 2, Standard Edition, v. 1.3.1_06
for BEA WebLogic Server^TM on UnixWare^® 7.1.3

This specific patch level release of Java 2 Standard Edition, v 1.3.1 provides the BEA "supported" client and server JVM required to use the BEA WebLogic Server on UnixWare 7.1.3.

For users who are not using BEA WebLogic, a more current J2SE 1.3.1 release is available as product "Java 2, Standard Edition, v.1.3.1 for SCO UNIX Operating Systems" on the download web-site.

This release of Java 2 Standard Edition contains:

the Java 2 Runtime Environment, which allows SCO UNIX end users to run Java applets and applications on SCO UNIX operating systems
the Java 2 Software Development Kit (J2SDK), which enables SCO UNIX OEMs, ISVs, and end users to develop Java applets and applications that conform to the Java 2 Core API
Java 2 Plug-In for Netscape 4.x browsers

J2SE 1.3.1 for SCO UNIX is a full implementation of the Sun Microsystems^TM Java 2 Platform - the technology and environment described in the Sun^TM specifications of the Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition, v. 1.3.1. (The _06 suffix on the version number indicates the patch level of the Sun J2SE that J2SE 1.3.1 for SCO UNIX corresponds to.)

Note: This is a separate Java implementation from the Java 2 Standard Edition implementations for Linux available for the Linux Kernel Personality (LKP) on UnixWare..
