Hi all, I am still compiling the /usr/port/java/jdk14/, which I think is the = native Java implementation. But as I see the compiling going on, I read = a couple of lines saying that they are going to turn on linux binary = compatibility. My question is: did they turn it on just for the purpose of the = compilation, or is jdk14/ not a real native implementation? Anyway, I also read from www.freebsdfoundation.org/downloads/java.shtml: The FreeBSD Foundation has negotiated a license with Sun Microsystems to = distribute FreeBSD binaries for the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) and = Java Development Kit (JDK). These implementations have been made = possible through the hard work of the BSD Java team, and contributors = (particularly WorldGate Communications, Inc.) as well as through = donations to the FreeBSD Foundation that supported hardware, developer = time, testing resources, and license negotiation. Looks like getting Java is going to get easier. Yeah!
