Introduction

Java Card enables secure elements, such as smart cards and other tamper-resistant security chips, to host applications, called applets, which employ Java technology.

Java Card technology offers a secure and interoperable execution platform that can store and update multiple applications on a single resource constrained device, while retaining the highest certification levels and compatibility with standards. Java Card developers can build, test, and deploy applications and services rapidly and securely. This accelerated process reduces development costs, increases product differentiation, and enhances value to customers.

The Java Card Development Kit is a suite of tools for designing implementations of Java Card technology and developing applets based on the Java Card Specifications. It is available as two independent downloads:

The Java Card Development Kit Tools are used to convert and verify Java Card applications.
The Java Card Development Kit Simulator offers a testing and debugging reference for Java Card applications. It includes a Java Card simulation environment and Eclipse plug-in.

Together, these two downloads provide a complete, stand-alone development environment in which applications written for the Java Card platform can be developed and tested.

These release notes describe the Java Card Development Kit Tools for the Java Card Platform. The Java Card Development Kit Tools convert and verify Java Card applications. You can use the Java Card Development Kit Tools with products based on version 3.2, 3.1, 3.0.5, and 3.0.4 of the Java Card Specification Classic Edition, as a stand-alone, or in conjunction with the Java Card Development Kit Simulator.

What's New

This topic contains the new features and changes in the Java Card Development Kit Tools.

The following are the changes in the Java Card Development Kit Tools:

New features
- [converter] Add ability to convert class files with version up to 54 (instead of 51) allowing to use up to `-release 10` when compiling classes.
- Refactor logging to use standard Java logger and allow customization and configuration by users.
- Remove the Apache Commons Logging and ASM third party libraries as they are not used anymore.
- Upgrade the Apache Commons CLI library to version 1.9.0.
- The tools can now be run using JDK 8 (instead of JDK 11 previously) or a newer JDK version. Note that the recommended version to use is JDK 17.
Issues Fixed
- [verifier] Fix issue preventing from converting an implementation of the java.lang package with verification enabled.
- [verifier] Fix issues preventing from using incremental verification for hierarchies with intermediate classes defined in other export files or not exported.
- [converter] Fix issue preventing from converting an abstract class that does not declare or define all methods from implemented interfaces.
- [converter] Fix issue preventing from converting classes containing an empty LocalVariableTable.
- [verifier] Fix issue preventing from verifying a CAP file using classes, defined in an export file format 2.3, implementing interfaces defined in another export file with 2.1.

For a complete list of supported features, refer to theJava Card Development Kit User Guide andJava Card Platform Specification Release Notes.
