Questions and Answers

1. When does Java 6 Error Correction Support end for publicly available releases?

2. Does the desupport date apply to all of Java 6 or just the JRE/JPI?

3. Does this impact the certification with other Oracle products like Fusion Middleware 11 (e.g. Forms, Discoverer, etc)?

4. When will certification for Java 7 with Fusion Middleware (including server and client side) be available?

5. I have heard that the JRE autoupdate will force me to install Java 7. Is this true and what if I don't want Java 7?
