I am pleased to be able to announce 1.4.2 patchset 6. This patchset should be suitable for most applications. The JDK it produces is de facto compliant, if you recompile Open Motif with the included patches. Use in a production environment is still at your own risk. This patchset is mainly a bugfix release over 1.4.2p5, with the exception being the change of the default threads library for -CURRENT to be libkse rather than libc_r. Some of the fixes are: 1. Fixes to JavaWS support. 2. Fix a problem with some missing fonts. 3. Fix the -Xrs switch to work on FreeBSD. 4. Improved NetBSD support. Thanks again to all the hard work by the BSD Java Porting Team, particularly Alexey Zelkin and Christos Zoulas, and to the FreeBSD Foundation for their continued support. The patchset can, as usual, be downloaded from http://www.eyesbeyond.com/freebsddom/java/jdk14.html I believe Alexey will update the jdk14 port shortly. -- Greg Lewis Email : glewis@eyesbeyond.com Eyes Beyond Web : http://www.eyesbeyond.com Information Technology FreeBSD : glewis@FreeBSD.org
