Application Purpose Version Download Links

Oracle Java SE Development Kit (JDK)

Required by all the products:

To launch the product, as each product is a Java application.
To build the product from the source distribution (both JDK and Apache Maven are required).

1.6.24 or later / 1.7.*

If you are using JDK 1.6, you might need to replace the Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) policy files in your JDK with the Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) Unlimited Strength Jurisdiction Policy files. This will avoid "illegal key size" errors when you try to invoke a secured web service.
If you want to build the product from the source distribution, you must use JDK 1.6 instead of JDK 1.7.
Oracle and IBM JRE 1.7 are also supported when running (not building) WSO2 products.
