Java now has a built-in expiration date. What that's about (not obvious at first)
Note: This blog post is from 2013. Some content may be outdated--though not necessarily. Same with links and subsequent comments from myself or others. Corrections are welcome, in the comments. And I may revise the content as necessary.If you may have looked at the release notes for the latest (as of this writing) JVM update (Java 1.7 update 21), you may have noticed that it refers to an "expiration date" for this version of the JVM. What's that about, you may wonder?
