Hi again, I managed to successfully build native java 142 on FreeBSD 5.2.1 after upgrading ports and source to latest. No errors at all. What does that mean? Somewhere in this thread was said that the new KSE is a problem for having native java 14 on FreeBSD 5.2.1. Or it means that build is OK but once I start using it some problem will show up? Is reporting bugs interesting to the port team?

The native version for FreeBSD 4.x needs some final tests that you can only do if you have an NDA with the Foundation or Sun. However, the native version for 5.x won't happen until we can figure out why jdb (and anything else that uses JVMPI or JVMDI) doesn't like KSEs. If anyone is interested, thats definitely a worthwhile project. -- Greg Lewis Email : glewis@eyesbeyond.com Eyes Beyond Web : http://www.eyesbeyond.com Information Technology FreeBSD : glewis@FreeBSD.org
