As long as you don't polute the java.* or javax.* path you can produce whatever libraries you want. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17763834/is-it-javax-illegalreserved-package-name-or-not Haddock schrieb: > Hello, > > JDK8 has some new class LinkedTransferQueue which has much better performance than LinkedBlockingQueue. For various reasons I can't change to JDK8. So I would like to backport the JDK8 LinkedTransferQueue to JDK6. My question is whether there could be any legal problem with that or whether that is fine. I'm working on some open source application. So all code would be open and therefore the mater could become an issue. > > Thanks, Haddock >
