  The Java Development Kit (JDK) can be used to develop and run Java applets and programs on DIGITAL UNIX.

This kit contains a Just-in-Time (JIT) compiler, which provides on-the-fly compilation of your application's Java byte-codes and runtime calls into native Alpha machine code. This results in significantly faster execution of your Java application compared with running it using the Java interpreter, while maintaining the same behavior.

For more information, see the Java documentation in the following directory on the DIGITAL UNIX system where the JDK is installed:

/usr/share/doclib/java/index.html

If that is the system serving you this page, go to the installed JDK documentation.

You can also see the JavaSoft JDK documentation at the Sun Microsystems Java site.
