How to develop in Java on Mac with OSX Lion -

-

im new java developer , thinking getting mac. heard osx lion not support java. mean cannot develop java on mac? or have go java downloads myself?

what means right now, nothing has changed, except jdk 6 , on separate download via software update. jdk 7 available oracle, maybe through app store if lucky!

what has happened apple has quit mangling own jdk os , delegating responsibility oracle supply jdk osx going forward. isn't installed default, after fact just on every other platform other solaris. arguably thing, apple jdk lags 6 months plus behind official sun/oracle one. having more vested interest in technology on platforms thing!

original press release
