Well, hold on. Both the proprietary JDK and OpenJDK meet the
specification, and we try very hard to be compatible with all
the things that Java programmers assume. And we fix compatibility
bugs if we can.
I am afraid that most of these problems are caused by stupid
developers
who are using (against all advices they were given) com.sun.* classes
(which I am said is the most common source of problems). There is no
protection against stupid programmers, I am afraid.
There really is very little difference between the com.sun.* classes
in OpenJDK and the proprietary JDK, as far as I know. Of course, I
haven't really checked, but... ;-)
