The native port (as opposed to a hypothetical, but currently prohibited binary release) requires access to the JDK source code. That source code is only released to residents of countries on this list: http://www.sun.com/software/communitysource/countries.html If your country is not on the list, no native port for you. Use Linux emulation. If your application breaks under Linux emulation, then don't use FreeBSD. -Michael Robinson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
