The JDK on the FreeBSD site is statically linked with Motif. You probably didn't compile it, since the FreeBSD java team (of which I am not part) don't provide any source, since they had to sign a non-disclosure with sun to get the source themselves. If you were to actually compile JDK yourself, you'd need the Motif libraries and headers, and you'd need to sign Sun's non-disclosure agreement. If you just like to run or develop java apps, you only need the binary JDK distribution, which, I take it, you have. // Rasmus Kaj -- kaj@cityonline.se --------------- Rasmus Kaj - http://www.e.kth.se/~kaj/ \ CityOnLine IB Production AB - http://www.CityOnLine.se/ \------------------------ Microsoft: How long do U want to wait today?
