I sure hope I'm wrong. Anyhow, I'm going to try experimenting, but I need a good definition of what a couple of standard Java variables are, like JAVA_HOME, or CLASSPATH (is that one still in common use?) and JDK_HOME or JRE_HOME? I'm going to experiment with all 3 of those ports, so I want to get the JAVA_HOME *exactly* right, so I don't accidentally blame the java, when it's really my wrong settings of variables. I last programmed in Java about 10 years ago, so I know most of the internals, but I have either forgotten the JAVA_HOME or I never knew it too well to begin with. > Cheers, > > > Ernst > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-java@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-java > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-java-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (FreeBSD) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFIIzfNz62J6PPcoOkRAs19AJ4qEe4E8IsqcDZA7kFRApAxbEqY+ACghLkb 79QQPPGnY7BFLXdi1ADz2cw= =Pu9S -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
