Hi all, Patchset 5 for JDK 1.3.1 is up on the web site. The main highlights are: 1. NetBSD support is included (Scott Bartram and Alistair Crooks). 2. The green threads subsystem is now very solid (Fuyuhiko Maruyama). 5. The native threads subsystem was redone and is closer to working (Bill Huey). 3. Both threading subsystems can be built at once (Fuyuhiko Maruyama). 4. Various problems with external process were fixed (Fuyuhiko Maruyama and Jay Sachs). See THANKS and ChangeLog in the patchset for more information. If you are a Chinese, Japanese or Korean user you should still also apply the Open Motif patch from http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=30421 and rebuild Open Motif before building the JDK. This prevents a potential memory fault when using XIM. The patch will become unnecessary on your platform once the Open Motif port/package has been updated. I recommend people switch to using this version if they want to use a native JDK 1.3.1. I've sent in an update for the FreeBSD JDK 1.3.1 native port. The impatient can find it at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=31257 -- Greg Lewis Email : glewis@eyesbeyond.com Eyes Beyond Phone : (801) 765 1887 Information Technology Web : http://www.eyesbeyond.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
