: JavaRuntimeSupport.framework was explicitly created to make API for OpenJDK and 3rd party JVMs to do everything that the Apple Java SE 6 did using private SPI. To prove that it worked, we re-implemented Java SE 6 on top of it. It's purpose is to expose a stable API for functionality that is generally inappropriate for Cocoa applications, but is necessary for the Java to cooperate with the OS X graphical environment.
We currently have no plans to expand JavaRuntimeSupport, and no plans to deprecate it. Regards, Mike Swingler Apple Inc. Thank you for the clear statement, this is exactly what we needed as the status of JavaRuntimeSupport.framework was not clear (at least not to me).
