JDK => JRE

843804Aug 20 2007 — edited Aug 24 2007

Hi All,

Just a quick question.
Am I right in thinking that the JDK is a super set of the JRE? I am installing the JDK but don't want to install the JRE package. Is there a way of setting up a JRE using the JDK installation?

I am installing a different application which requires the JDK and a JRE. It seems a bit pointless to install both at twice the space when one is contained within the other anyway.

Thanks,
David.
