Hi, you FreeBSD guys seem to be the only ones who are seriously using self-compiled Sun JDKs. I am considering the possibility of compiling a 5.0 JDK on linux with a gcc patched with stack smashing protection. Unfortunately, I cannot get information on how one can get the source code for the 1.5.0_04 JDK. Sun only seems to offer the 1.5.0_00 source code as all source code filed in the .zip file are dated on October 2004 (the realease date of JDK 1.5.0)? Is this correct? But you are using very huge (serveral 100k big) patchsets in order to be able to compile the linux sun jdks under FreeBSD. Have you written each and every patch yourself? Or are there the 1.5.0_00 -> 1.5.0_0x patchsets already included (besides your FreeBSD-specific patches)? If they are, form where did you get them? Does Sun offer them publicly under their research licence? At which place? Any help would be really greatly appriciated! Cheers, Michael Meyer. ___________________________________________________________ Gesendet von Yahoo! Mail - Jetzt mit 1GB Speicher kostenlos - Hier anmelden: http://mail.yahoo.de
