Hello to all freebsd java users, first: the good news: the RFE reached 1000 votes :-). second: some some questions about porting java to freebsd (I don't really know to much about differences between different OSs, but I'll just ask my questions from what I've heard.): 1. Shouldn't it be easier for SUN or another party to port the original Solaris JDK to FreeBSD systems) cause both OSs derive from the original BSD and FreeBSD is not a completly new implementation of *nix, like Linux is? 2. Does FreeBSD have a kernel-thread implementation, so that a port can use native-threads? 3. Is it possible to use Linux JDK1.2 under FreeBSD with native-threads? 4. Does anyone know if IBM wants to do a JDK-Port to FreeBSD (their Linux-JDK is pure native threads)? 5. What are the main differences between Solaris, AIX and FreeBSD under the view of porting or implementing JDK1.2? I don't know if this system-specific questions are right in this list, but i ask anyway :-). I really appreciate the work of the Porting Team, and the company I work for is using it for production use. Thanks Nate and all the others and I hope you can answer some of my questions.
