Release Date

Posted by Ismael on 27 May 1998, 8:53 AM

When will a beta version of HotSpot be available for developers?
Will it be released with JDK 1.2?

I ask this because JDK is in its 3rd beta and the 4th beta will be out soon (I think).

It would be really great if a HotSpot VM (in beta) would be powering the 4th beta of JDK 1.2 or the 5th (i don't know if this will exist).

Please clarify this to me.

Regards,

Ismael
