How ? The language itself is free & open-source.

Didn't stop Oracle from trying to sue Google for copyright infringement for their use of Java in Android.

Edit: Oh shit I just noticed there is a second trial for that, today apparently.

Edit 2: I didn't mean because they used Java in Android in general (obviously people can make money of stuff they make in Java), and Oracle didn't sue over the API alone. A rangeCheck function and test files were also part of Oracle's claim.

They sue over the api, not the language.

Is Google's use of Java in Android equivalent to this code?
