Or you could just use the green threads + Classic VM combination which is what passed the compatibility tests. This error is _only_ for HotSpot which is clearly stated to be experimental for 1.3.1. To be more specific, if you want a compliant JDK, you will compile 1.3.1p8 without native threads or HotSpot and without optimisation. You will not use a JIT. That is the only setup which has tested as compliant so far. To answer your question about the patch being included in patchset 9, the answer is yes. I've got it in my local tree and will check it in to the repo soon and add a patch to the port after ports freeze is done. -- Greg Lewis Email : glewis@eyesbeyond.com Eyes Beyond Web : http://www.eyesbeyond.com Information Technology FreeBSD : glewis@FreeBSD.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
