Quoting "kphua">>-------------------
JRE stands for Java Runtime Environment, which includes the Java Virtual Machine that runs the bytecode compiled from your Java source code.
---------------------------------
Well there you have it.
JRE = Java RunTime Env,
JDK = Java Development Kit.

You need JDK if you wanna compile your classes etc (development). I think JRE comes with JDK.
Well, I downloaded the JDK 1.4 and JRE got installed automatically. YOu need JRE aswell, Thats what Java uses to run.

Hope this helps.

Sup,
I think FORTE is written in Java. So its pretty heavy on memory. But it is a very good IDE. I personally use JPadPro or JBuilder.
JCreatorPro is another goodie.

* If you wanna use JBuilder then make sure you have pretty good processor and lots of memory, I usually to larger projects with it. And it eats up RAM man

You defnitely need the JDK. I think SDK is just an older name for JDK or vice versa. It's the same thing; they just changed what they call it.

They just invented a new set of naming for Java 2 to confuse everyone, as Tree mentioned, it is more or less the same stuff: http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.2/java2.html

I hate FORTE, it takes up too much memory. I still do most of my programming in vi.
