X-BeenThere: freebsd-java@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: Porting Java to FreeBSD List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Fri, 24 Jun 2005 22:02:36 -0000 All, These days, I tried to build the JDK15 on AMD64 with Fedora Core 3, but failed. And I happened to find out that in these two mailing lists, there were many people who had successfully built it with FreeBSD. I hope I could get some detailed information about the building procedure. Do you also use the source code from SUN SCSL or another version maintained by FreeBSD.org? What is the requirement I should meet to build it on FreeBSD, such as the version of FreeBSD? Do I still need GCC 3.2.2? Sorry about so many questions at the first time. Your instructions will be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Neo -- I would remember that if researchers were not ambitious probably today we haven't the technology we are using!
