Sun Microsystems showcases JavaFX technology

Sun Microsystems showcased their upcoming JavaFX family of products to developers.

The company said that this technology would let the developers code rich Internet applications that would be compatible with a variety of operating systems and platforms.

This would be somewhat similar to the Adobe’s AIR technology which currently support Windows, Linux and Mac OS X.

Sun Microsystems Executive Vice President Rich Green said in a statement: “JavaFX is a powerful client technology for creating rich Internet applications with immersive media and content across the multiple screens of an individual’s life.”

Green added: “Java powers virtually every enterprise on the planet, in every Web farm and every enterprise and in any large system out there — it’s everywhere. The rate of growth of Java continues unabated, across all the screens of your life.”
