OpenJDK package name on Fedora is java-1.?.0-openjdk.
Java Consoles
There are at least 2 consoles:
- OpenJDK 8
- Monitoring ...
- Policy ...
- IcedTea (deprecated ??)
- Monitoring
- Policy ...
OpenJDK's java.library.path, shared library paths for i386 are:
/usr/lib /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.?.0-openjdk-1.?.0.0.x86_64/jre/lib/
and for x86_64:
/usr/lib64 /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.?.0-openjdk-1.?.0.0.x86_64/jre/lib/amd64/
Java subsystem debugging
Preparations
For all Java subsystem debugging, installing the symbols package java-1.7.0-openjdk-debuginfo is essential. All debuginfo sub-packages reside in own repository which needs to be enabled for installation at least. An example yum command:
# dnf install --enablerepo=fedora-debuginfo -y java-1.8.0-openjdk-debuginfo
Applets ??
Applets are deprecated, no ???
Console has moved to icedTea itself (requires icedtea-web package). Activating the console can be done with gui-tool:
Program menu --> Settings --> IcedTea Web Control Panel
Console can for example list detailed information about the environment which can be useful for bugreporting:

Test URLs
Fedora's JRE in browser environment can be tested using the following test pages:
- http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml
- http://java.com/en/download/installed.jsp?detect=jre&try=1
Note that those pages itself are sad examples of compliance of specifications: buggy or buggier - if you know any better pages, change them here.
