I have my CLASSPATH variable set as follows: CLASSPATH=.:/usr/local/share/kaffe/classes.zip:/usr/local/netscape/java/classes/java40.jar Kaffe is quite happy, finding its classes stuff. Netscape 4.04 now complains that its classes are unsigned (previous versions did not care?); placing the Netscape classes first causes Kaffe to barf with a seg violation. Presumably the Netscape signatures on Jar files are standard Java Stuff, so Kaffe is at fault for not reading Jar files appropriately. What would be the best way to resolve this? Wrappers to set CLASSPATH appropriately? Also, I am not sure that the . at the beginning is necessary/appropriate (Given a general concern with .'s in any path), but it must have come out of a sample config somewhere from Kaffe or such. Is the current JDK happy with signed Jar files? (etc?)
