Application Status
Since its conception, Harmony grown in its ability to execute non-trivial Java applications (see here). As of July 2007, supported applications include:
- Eclipse: 99.3% of the 36000 reference implementation (RI) test pass on Harmony's DRLVM + class library.
- Apache Tomcat: 100% of the RI tests pass.
- JUnit: 100% of the RI tests pass.
- Apache Ant: 97% of the RI tests pass.
- Other applications pass with a high success rate, such as Apache Derby, Apache Axis, Log4j, Apache Velocity, Apache Cocoon, jEdit, and Apache Commons.
However, Harmony's incomplete library prevented it from launching some other applications:
- ArgoUML: because it needs a Java applet implementation, which was still unavailable in Harmony.
- Apache Geronimo runs on Apache Harmony with some issues and workarounds.
- Vuze, formerly Azureus, because of unimplemented security classes.

Famous quotes containing the words application and/or status:
“By an application of the theory of relativity to the taste of readers, to-day in Germany I am called a German man of science, and in England I am represented as a Swiss Jew. If I come to be regarded as a bête noire the descriptions will be reversed, and I shall become a Swiss Jew for the Germans and a German man of science for the English!”
—Albert Einstein (1879–1955)
“Recent studies that have investigated maternal satisfaction have found this to be a better prediction of mother-child interaction than work status alone. More important for the overall quality of interaction with their children than simply whether the mother works or not, these studies suggest, is how satisfied the mother is with her role as worker or homemaker. Satisfied women are consistently more warm, involved, playful, stimulating and effective with their children than unsatisfied women.”
—Alison Clarke-Stewart (20th century)
