1.3. Requirements

JBoss Cache requires a Java 5.0 (or newer) compatible virtual machine and set of libraries, and is developed and tested on Sun's JDK 5.0 and JDK 6.
In addition to Java 5.0, at a minimum, JBoss Cache has dependencies on JGroups, and Apache's commons-logging. JBoss Cache ships with all dependent libraries necessary to run out of the box, as well as several optional jars for optional features.
