hi, Yep. jdk 1.4 is almost self-buildable now (except one case, but having it native-bootstraped gave me optimizim that it will be fixed soon). Main problem now is to get working (at least basicly) awt based apps and check out functionality of application that utilizies java threads. BTW, it would be nice if someone will send me few examples of standalone java applications that heavily utilize java threads (no gui please :-)) On Thu, Aug 15, 2002 at 01:59:51PM +0930, Greg Lewis wrote: > > I've checked out http://www.freebsd.org/java and did some searching > > in some other places.
