Hey all,

I've been out of the FreeBSD-java loop for a while (about 6 months or so,
maybe more). I just checked freebsd.org's java page, and the last thing I
saw mentioned was "Greg Lewis has just announced that the native FreeBSD
JDK 1.2.2 port has entered alpha test stage", dated May 3rd.

Here's my situtation: I'm developing a project that requires some
server-side code, which I'd like to write in Java, and I'd like to use
FreeBSD as a platform. Some of the code will consist of standalone
services, and some will be accessed via the Web, which I'd like to write in
JSP (I suppose I could live with plain ol' servlets, but I'd rather not).
My code is mostly 1.1 compliant, except that I use Collections quite a bit.

I'm assuming that he preferred way to implement this goes something like this:

1) Install Apache + Tomcat
2) Assuming that Tomcat comes with a 1.1-compliant JDK, somehow add the
Collections classes to its class path.
3) That's pretty much it.

Is there any preferred, non-hackish way to add Collections to Tomcat? Has
this already been taken care of?

Thanks much,
Chris
