Good news for all Java users.Oracle will start auto-updating Windows 32-bit and OS X, Java Runtime Environment (JRE) users from JRE 7 to JRE 8 in January 2015.
The Java auto-update mechanism is designed to keep Java users up-to-date with the latest security fixes. To achieve this goal Windows and OS X users that rely on Java’s auto-update mechanism will have their JRE 7 replaced with JRE 8.
Oracle will start auto-updating all Windows 32-bit and OS X users from JRE 7 to JRE 8 with the update release of Java, Java SE 8 Update 31 (Java SE 8u31), due in January 2015.
JRE 8 has been the default version on Java.com since October 2014 and is now being used by millions of users.
As Oracle replaced JRE 6 by JRE 7, oracle will auto-update users of the older release to the newer version of Java.
As always, all users are encouraged to update to the most recent Java versions available for public download.
In March 2014 Oracle announced the End of Public Updates for their Java SE 7 products for April 2015.more information....
