News You Can Use about OS/2 Warp ...

A Preview of Coming Attractions.

You OS/2 Java(tm)** junkies can now preview IBM's soon to be
released OS/2 Warp Developer Kit, Java Technology Edition,
Version 1.1.8.   This version is the latest in a line of stable,
high performance, compatible Java platforms for OS/2.  You noticed
the word 'Preview', right?  Well that means that while it is not
yet ready for running critical applications, the version 1.1.8
preview is available to you today for early testing.

We have taken selected functions from Sun's Java 2 technology and
added them to our already robust version 1.1.7 of the OS/2 Developer
Kit.  You can now begin evaluating some of the Java 2 functions as
you think about migration of your Java applications to the Java 2
platform.  The new OS/2 Warp Runtime Environment, JavaTM 2
Technology Edition, version 1.1.8 will include IBM's implementation
of the Java COMM API for OS/2, and Swing.  We have also taken the
following selected functions from Java 2: Java 2 security classes
& Remote Method Invocation over IIOP (RMI/IIOP).
