Lon Chen, It's the FreeBSD community, nothing is a bother. ;-) No. Everything is still crashing with OpenJDK7. The sad part is the newest issue I'll face is that OpenNMS is going to 16 on their software and it will require a JDK 8 variant. FYI, JDK7 is dead very soon. There will be no support for it as Oracle is going to EOL 7. So, JDK8 will be the only JDK supported soon. I've been trying to get the FreeBSD Java people to pick this up and run with it to get OpenJDK to work correctly again. The OpenNMS people have made extensive patches to OpenNMS to support FreeBSD after I begged them to do so. However, I have heard nothing about progress being made to resolve the issues in weeks. I'm going to CC the people on the java@freebsd.org list. If you can send them crash dumps, that would be great. I'm still working with the OpenNMS people and I'm going to get a cheat sheet together on how to quickly implement a build and install so that someone in the java group can fix these issues. P.
