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:
“We will not be imposed upon by this vast application of forces. We believe that most things will have to be accomplished still by the application called Industry. We are rather pleased, after all, to consider the small private, but both constant and accumulated, force which stands behind every spade in the field. This it is that makes the valleys shine, and the deserts really bloom.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“As a work of art it has the same status as a long conversation between two not very bright drunks.”
—Clive James (b. 1939)
