All, If you're not afraid to build the JDK from scratch without a port, please try the "current" (new) JDK 1.6 patchset (see http://www.eyesbeyond.com/freebsddom/java/jdk16.html). This is based on the 1.6.0 Update 1 Build b06 JRL source. Unless I get some showstopper reports I plan to release this as patchset 1 sometime next week. The raw patchset itself will have problems if you don't have the /usr/X11R6 symlink, but this will be fixed in the port. I haven't yet created the jdk16 port, which is why you'll have to build it from scratch ;). It should be reasonably similar to the current jdk15 port though. If the build is successful you should see something like this: > /usr/local/jdk1.6.0/bin/java -version java version "1.6.0_01-p1" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_01-p1-glewis_19_may_2007_14_14-b00) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.6.0_01-p1-glewis_19_may_2007_14_14-b00, mixed mode) (This is on i386 -- you'll see the Server VM on amd64). Note that I'll be out of town until Tuesday evening, so I may be unable to respond to any problems before then. -- Greg Lewis Email : glewis@eyesbeyond.com Eyes Beyond Web : http://www.eyesbeyond.com Information Technology FreeBSD : glewis@FreeBSD.org
