From: Herve Quiroz To: freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org, joshua@roughtrade.net Cc: Subject: Re: ports/69095: [MAINTAINER UPDATE] New versions of net/spread & net/spread-j Date: Thu, 15 Jul 2004 17:43:44 +0200 Joshua, You may use ${JAVAJARDIR} rather than defining your own variable for such a purpose. BTW, Greg Lewis recently added support for it in PLIST_SUB [1] so this could even reduce the size of the Makefile. Also, USE_JAVA=1.2+ is a deprecated practice. With bsd.java.mk 2.0, the correct syntax is: USE_JAVA= yes JAVA_VERSION= 1.2+ Altough backward compatibility is provided ATM, I would suggest that you take advantage of this PR to update your port to bsd.java.mk 2.0 as we plan to remove 1.0 support in the near future. The new features of bsd.java.mk 2.0 are quite documented in [2] (this is quite a recent addition) but in case you have any further questions, feel free to email me. I will be pleased to help you as I am trying to get more maintainers switch to bsd.java.mk 2.0...
