The program I am interested in is available as a set of linux binaries (as well as the usual MS windows, mac etc.). The software is contructed so that there is a front end providing all user interface written in java and an engine written in c/c++. The authors distribute the software as binaries only, but they clearly say that if you have jdk1.1.7 or greater installed on your machine, you only need to install the engine portion and it will interact correctly with java. I am tracking 4.x-STABLE branch and I have installed jdk1.1.8 from the ports collection. I naively thought that I could run the engine portion under linux emulation and use the FBSD version of jre. When I tried the above strategy, I received the following error message: -- Unable to initialize threads: cannot find class java/lang/Thread Could not create Java VM -- If it is not already obvious, I am completely ignorant of java issues. Any ideas? cheers, Allan -- Allan Strand, Biology College of Charleston Charleston, SC 29424 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
