News and Events

HP will no longer be able to offer sustaining engineering for Java/iX after December 31, 2006. As a result, HP will be unable to provide patches or fixes for new problems requiring modifications to the Java/iX source code. Existing patches will remain available from their current locations, and technical support for Java/iX will remain available from the Customer Support Centers through, but not beyond, the MPE/iX end of support date, December 31, 2008.

Current releases

SDK 1.3 (MPE Version A.30.00) is the most recent supported Java release. It is downloadable from the "Supported JDK Software" link. Patch JAVLXP4D is also available for MPE/iX 6.5 systems as an alternative to downloading the code from this site. For users on 7.0, you can download the 1.3 SDK from this site, but it will not include the HotSpot Virtual Machine. 7.0 users are instead encouraged to request patch JAVLXP4F to get SDK 1.3 with the HotSpot Virtual Machine included. This patch will also be included in the MPE/iX 7.0 Express 1 release as well as in the MPE/iX 7.5 Mainline release.

SDK 1.2.2 (MPE Version A.22.05) is still available. It is downloadable from the "Supported JDK Software" link.

JDK 1.1.7B is the final JDK 1.1 release. You can download the software from the 'Supported JDK Software' link. This is the JDK version included with MPE/iX 6.0 Express 1.

A patch is available online to update the original 1.1.7B release to support compressed jar files. This patch is also downloadable under the 'Supported JDK Software' link.
