Someone said there is a BSD/OS JDK available somewhere that runs on FreeBSD. I have not been able to locate that one, does it really exist?? What I know about is: - The lang/jdk port. Installs the classes.zip only. - The lang/kaffe port. Seems to work very well for non-graphics code. Biss-awt looks to unfinished to be useful, though. I haven't tried sawt, but from what people write about it I suppose that one isn't really useful either. - The "unofficial/unsupported" JDK in ftp://freefall.freebsd.org/ pub/FreeBSD/LOCAL_PORTS/jdk102.11-26.tar.gz. This one seems to be 3.0 only (at least it wants a 3.0 libc). If it works with 2.2, I would consider upgrading to make it run. (Hmm, is there any functionality that current had in november when this port was done that is not in 2.2 by now?) _ Mats Lofkvist mal@algonet.se
