Difference between JDK & SDK!
 |
Can anyone tell me the difference in JDK & SDK?
I believed till now that both term are same.
...but SunMicrosystem tell both are different. (You can find it at Sun's website)
So what is the difference in these two terms?

you're wrong.
Sun's right.
The JDK is an SDK, but an SDK doesn't have to be a JDK.

The remainder of the SDK is composed of extra software, such as Application Servers, Debuggers, and Documentation.

Wikipedia is wrong. A JDK is a full SDK, so it's an implementation of the concept of
"SDK" rather than a subset of it.

I know. It's also known to revert corrections back to a state where the article is in error though.
I've pretty much given up trying to correct things for that reason if the correction is more than a single word.
