In any case, almost all of my development is done on Unix, using the standard JDK. It's a couple hundred thousands lines of Java, using CORBA and it works fine under FreeBSD 'mostly'. There are some bugs in the 1.1 K.White port, but otherwise it works well. At least as well or better than the 'commercial development tools', which for the most part are a crock for x-platform development. (Symantec's CAFE supported x-platform development before, but it's no longer a supported product, and it's replacement is useless.) Nate
