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:
“I think that a young state, like a young virgin, should modestly stay at home, and wait the application of suitors for an alliance with her; and not run about offering her amity to all the world; and hazarding their refusal.... Our virgin is a jolly one; and tho at present not very rich, will in time be a great fortune, and where she has a favorable predisposition, it seems to me well worth cultivating.”
—Benjamin Franklin (1706–1790)
“[In early adolescence] she becomes acutely aware of herself as a being perceived by others, judged by others, though she herself is the harshest judge, quick to list her physical flaws, quick to undervalue and under-rate herself not only in terms of physical appearance but across a wide range of talents, capacities and even social status, whereas boys of the same age will cite their abilities, their talents and their social status pretty accurately.”
—Terri Apter (20th century)
