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:
“There are very few things impossible in themselves; and we do not want means to conquer difficulties so much as application and resolution in the use of means.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
“At all events, as she, Ulster, cannot have the status quo, nothing remains for her but complete union or the most extreme form of Home Rule; that is, separation from both England and Ireland.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
