Hello and thanks for the response.

I can understand that you cannot distribute a binary
distribution to me, we wouldn't want to go up agains
Sun, now would we ? :-)

However, you might be able to assist me in trying to compile
it myself ? :-)


I tried following the guidelines at
http://web.inter.nl.net/users/kjkoster/java/index.html
(as pointed out by the FreeBSD Java Project: JDK 2 page). However, it =
seems
like the patch
distribution I downloaded doesn't match the JDK source distribution I =
have.

The patches I downloaded are
http://www.eyesbeyond.com/freebsd-jdk122-patches-latest.tar.gz
and the source distribution I have is jdk1.2.2 (It said
Solaris/Linux/Windows NT on the
download page), no patches applied.

I made sure all the packages that's required are installed on my =
system.

The problems I get start with applying the build.patches file; Hunk #1
succeeds,=20
but when trying to patch freebsd/GNUmakefile I get:

Patching file GNUmakefile using Plan A...
Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected!  Assume -R? [y]


This confuses me. I know what it means (from the patch manpage), but =
why ?
My suspicion is that I have the wrong JDK source distribution..

Can you help me here ?

Hi Mattias,

Sorry, but distributing a binary version to you would be a violation of =
the
SCSL.  There are a plans for a binary release, but first the current =
code
must successfully negotiate the tests in the JCK.  Sun estimates this =
will
take us 3 months :(.
