Hallo,

ich habe folgendes Problem:
Meine Firma hat ein Produkt entwickelt, welches den Apache Tomcat (und demzufolge das SDK von SUN) vorraussetzt.
Ein Bekannter von mir meinte, dass man das SDK von SUN nicht auf CD ausliefern darf. Das JRE hingegen schon. Stimmt das?
Ich habe den halben Vormittag im Netz recherchiert und wenig dazu gefunden.
Ich würde mich freuen, wenn mir Jemand helfen könnte. Ein Link dazu wäre noch schöner.

Danke.

Vermutlich müsst ihr noch speziell auf die Rechte von Sun aufmerksam machen, insbesondere was der Kunde mit dem SDK darf und was nicht, aber sonst sollte es kein Problem sein.

Wenn ihr mutig seit, könnt ihr auch Tomcat 5.5.1 nehmen. :D
Dann braucht ihr die SDK nicht mehr.

Ich danke dir.
Nach ausführlichen Test habe ich herraus bekommen, dass auch das JRE genügt.
Tomcat 5.5.1 wäre auch eine gute Lösung, aber es muss erst getestet werden, ob unsere Anwendung damit reibungslos läuft. Im Moment benutzen wir noch Tomcat 4.x. Die Info merke ich mir auf jeden Fall vor.
