English

Java (1)

Etymology

Borrowed from Javanese ꦗꦮ (jawa), possibly from Sanskrit यव-द्वीप (yava-dvīpa, “island of barley”), used in reference to coffee grown on Java and nearby islands since at least 1850. The programming language (initially called Oak) is a reference to java, the blend of coffee from the island.

Pronunciation

Proper noun

Java

  1. An island in the Indonesian Archipelago, Indonesia.
  2. (computer languages) An object-oriented, garbage-collected computer programming language.
  3. (computer languages, proscribed) JavaScript, when no distinction is made between it and Java.
    • 1996 October 6, Timothy Litwiller, “HOW TO MAKE A JAVA ALERT POP UP ON LOAD”, in comp.lang.javascript (Usenet):
    • 1996 December 10, Cédric Bouckaert, “onBlur event handler with input fields”, in comp.lang.javascript (Usenet):
      In the input tag I include the onBlur="myfunction()" which checks if the field is filled (displays an alert if necessary and resets the focus). If I leave the first field I get an java alert which says that field two should have a value and then a java alert which says that field one should have a value and then a java... get the picture ?
    • 1997 January 7, Kenneth Roddy, “Java Alert Messages When Netscape Home Page Loads”, in comp.infosystems.www.browsers.ms-windows (Usenet):
    • 1997 February 18, AG, “alert...is there a way of controling font size and style when java alert window opens”, in comp.lang.javascript (Usenet):
      I created an alert window using java script, but I found the fonts too small. Is there a way of controling font size and style when java alert window opens.
    • 2003 April 8, mpaulopes, “Passing values to a Java popup windows”, in macromedia.coldfusion.cfml_general_discussion (Usenet):

Usage notes

  • While referring to JavaScript as Java is technically incorrect, this usage occurs often enough to merit verifying which is meant in cases where it's not clear.
