System Requirements

You need to have Java installed on your system. You need one of the following versions:

JDK 6, JDK 5 or J2SE 1.4.2

Note that you need the version labeled JDK, not JRE, or the Netbeans or EE versions.

Windows Vista users must use JDK 6 (read this for details).

Details about system requirements are here.

On MacOS X, a recent Java SDK version is installed by default. You do not need to install Java on this system.
