The current port is based on the linux/ source tree (build environment) and it compiles cleanly, but the two major platform specific directories still need to be examined and then need to be appropriately glued to FreeBSD's pthread and signaling layer. It's pretty scary that such a sophisticate compiler is written in C++. I've got a pretty solid hold on what to do overall and I'll keep you folks updated. ;-) bill To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
