I'm no java guy but regarding the latest commit message I think 1.4.2: jdk14 java Java Development Kit 1.4.2 Update to 1.4.2p5. Important changes since last patchset: . jdk14 port is now JDK 1.4.2 based! . JavaWS distributing with jdk . Runway problem fixed (fork() is no more problem for java apps) . Sound support updated . IPv6 support overhauled . Drag'n'Drop support fixed (require open-motif mods) As for now there's no more outstanding issues with this port! FreeBSD port is also got a important of changes: . optimized setup is now default (to get debuging bins/libs use WITH_DEBUG) . bootstrap jdk autodetection. If WITH_LINUX_BOOTSTRAP is not set, then it checks all known to work JDKs installed. If nothing found, forces to install of linux-sun-jdk14 . Because of above change there's no NATIVE_BOOTSTRAP option anymore. If native jdk14 is installed, it will be used by default. > > Preston > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to > "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQA/sr5oBylq0S4AzzwRAv9wAJ4uG2OHg+pVF/d6GQjnfIa7lU67MQCeLW/3 fPDnvTIAExLdiYzd9dbatr8= =p3Lm -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
