Applies to:
Java SE JDK and JRE - Version 6 to 8Information in this document applies to any platform.
Goal
When building an Java SE applications, concerns may arise about version compatibility. Can a Java SE application compiled under one update run of a major version successfully run with a JVM of the same major version but a different update release? For example, an application compiled with Java SE 6 update 45 but run with a JVM using Java SE 6 update 21 or even update 191. Will mixing jars all compiled under the same major version but various update releases cause a problem?
