I need to know if an Oracle license is included in your product XMLmind.
I suppose that you mean "an Oracle *Java* *Runtime* license is included
in your product XMLmind".
No, this is not the case. This is absolutely not needed.
However a private OpenJDK Java runtime, generally latest version, is
included in our Windows and Mac distributions. Therefore you don't need
to install Java on a Windows or Mac computer running an XMLmind product.
Note that the OpenJDK Java runtime
https://jdk.java.net/21/
is identical to the Oracle Java Runtime
https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/downloads/#java21
because it is built by Oracle itself.
Simply the licenses are very different. OpenJDK Java runtime:
GNU General Public License, version 2, *with* *the* *Classpath*
*Exception*, http://openjdk.org/legal/gplv2+ce.html
(It's the "Classpath Exception" which makes it legal for us to
distribute it with our commercial products.)
Oracle Java Runtime:
Proprietary license.
