But I suspect I might have to, to deal with the differences in pthread implementations. I also plan to try with IBM's MxN pthread implementation, which I have ported to FreeBSD. Strictly speaking - yes. I copied orp/os/linux -> orp/os/freebsd and removed code which was trying to deal with various versions of Linux (which differ w.r.t. signal handling). > > 3.

I meant, it will be large and repetitive. I'll have both the diff and full sources on the net later today. -Arun To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
