Apache Harmony - Application Status

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:

    Science is intimately integrated with the whole social structure and cultural tradition. They mutually support one other—only in certain types of society can science flourish, and conversely without a continuous and healthy development and application of science such a society cannot function properly.
    Talcott Parsons (1902–1979)

    A genuine Left doesn’t consider anyone’s suffering irrelevant or titillating; nor does it function as a microcosm of capitalist economy, with men competing for power and status at the top, and women doing all the work at the bottom.... Goodbye to all that.
    Robin Morgan (b. 1941)
