How to Run Java in Solaris 10
Solaris 10 is an operating system developed by Sun Microsystems and used on PCs around the world. It is a graphically driven operating system, and incorporates some of the best object-oriented functionality available. This is partly due to Solaris 10's integration of Java, an open-source programming language also developed by Sun Microsystems. Solaris 10 includes the Java Development Kit, pre-installed and ready to go.
