    jee sdk without jdk ?

    on the web site of sun there is a jee sdk download option like this:
    dowload sdk without jdk? and you can download this binary : java_ee_sdk-5_03-windows-nojdk.exe

    what is the difference between sdk and jdk, i used to think that they refer to the same thing. but then what does an sdk binary with name like
    java_ee_sdk-5_03-windows-nojdk.exe mean?

    i am confused

    here is the link:

      What i think ... when u download SDK then an editor will come ..but in case of JDK then no editor will come.
      Only you can get Java Compiler and JVM.

          as far as i understand from your comment you say that:
          jdk consist of: compiler and jvm
          sdk consist of: compiler and jvm and an editor


          but the download options are:
          sdk with jdk
          and
          sdk without jdk (in this case do we download only an editor? )

                  Sun always uses confusing names and version numbers; a JavaEE installation
                  always requires a 'Standard Edition' JDK (the runtime plus development tools
                  such as the compiler, rmi compiler, jni etc).

                  They call it the JSE JDK. The development kit for JEE is named SDK; although
                  they used to name the JSE JDK an SDK as well (ary you still with me ;-)

                  Most of the time people already have an JSE JDK installed (a 'normal' Java development
                  installation) so they don't want it again with the JEE SDK installation. That's what
                  those two options are all about.

                  kind regards,

                  Jos
