[General] Oracle auto-updates java and breaks applications

Actions

From Joe Terrano Jul 28, 2010 7:26 PM

Oracle changed the version string in java so that the company name reads
"Oracle" and they ended up with a lot of broken apps out
there<http://it.slashdot.org/story/10/07/28/2121259/Oracles-Java-Company-Change-Breaks-Eclipse>.
Seems like a fairly rookie mistake for a software shop for Oracle, but it
seems to set the tone for the future...
