Java 1.6 for Leopard is out ...


And for those of you at WWDC, you already heard my rant on this one. The fine print is that this is for Intel 64-bit only. Throw out your first gen macbooks, throw out the PPCs and G5s (you have already, right?). I thought it was stupid of them to announce 64-bit only intel support when the then shipping product line at announcement was still heavily 32-bit only. Lovely, that.
Also throw out Carbon SWT, because there's no 64-bit Carbon UI, so no Eclipse on 1.6 until Cocoa SWT is finished. However, it doesn't install as the default, yet, so nothing will break, you just don't get any of the 1.6 advantages in Eclipse yet.
