XMLWordPrintable

    • Verified

        On the Linux platform, the names of JRE and JDK packages provided by Java RPM installers have been changed. Names of JRE and JDK packages follow `jre<major.minor>` and `jdk<major.minor>` patterns respectively instead of the `jre` and `jdk` previously used. For example, the new names of JRE and JDK packages are `jre1.8` and `jdk1.8` respectively.

        On Linux platform, the names of installation directories of Java products have also been changed. The installation directories of products from the 8u171 release are as follows:
        `/usr/java/jre1.8.0_171-i586 for 32bit JRE`
        `/usr/java/jdk1.8.0_171-i586 for 32bit JDK`
        `/usr/java/jre1.8.0_171-amd64 for 64bit JRE`
        `/usr/java/jdk1.8.0_171-amd64 for 64bit JDK`
