Everyone is pretty aware that Android OS is the biggest development in mobile OS. In order to get a share of Android market Oracle accused google of copying Java code for use in the Android OS. Oracle is claiming that major chunks of the code that makes up Android is copied from the code used by Oracle which includes class libraries, names, definitions, parameters and even documentation. Oracle wants all revenue made since the release of the OS over two and half years ago or at least half of Android’s search revenue as a royalty. The foundations of Android’s applications are based on Java and Google has issued the following statement in response:“We are disappointed that Oracle has chosen to attack both Google and the open-source Java community with this baseless lawsuit. The open-source Java community goes beyond any corporation and works every day to make the web a better place. We will strongly defend open-source standards and will continue to work with the industry to develop the Android platform.” Another interesting information is that Google has more developers contributing to OpenJDK than Oracle.
