·All
the programs which are required for developing a java application, compiling a
java program, debugging and executing a java application and the library
packages and class would present in JDK.
·Thus
JDK is a package or folder which contains
1. Programs
required for developing java application
2. Java
compilers
3. Java
debuggers
4. JVM
5. Library
classes and Library packages
·JVM
would be a part of JDK. We can download JDK or we can download only JVM.
·If
the compiled code of a program could be executed irrespective of the operating
system under which it has been compiled, then we call that program and it’s
programming language as platform independent.
·Java
developers require JDK for developing java applications. But where as a client
requires only Jvm.
·The
size of the JDK would be more than the size of the JVM.
