The java-1.6.0-openjdk package adds support for the Java programming language. This package provides the java interpreter. The java-1.6.0-openjdk-devel package contains the javac compiler, as well as the libraries and header files required for developing Java extensions.
Similarly, Red Hat Enterprise Linux also provides Java 7 via the java-1.7.0-openjdk* packages and Java 8 via the java-1.8.0-openjdk* packages.

2.2.8.1.  Java Documentation

For more information about Java, see man java. Some associated utilities also have their own respective man pages.
You can also install other Java documentation packages for more details about specific Java utilities. By convention, such documentation packages have the javadoc suffix (for example, dbus-java-javadoc).
The main site for the development of Java is hosted on http://openjdk.java.net/. The main site for the library runtime of Java is hosted on http://icedtea.classpath.org.
