i am trying to find an example java build on arch wiki, also been looking
at the forums. is there no example pkgbuild that i can copy and put in

There is none that I know of. Most java packages just dump all their
files in /usr/share/java/${pkgname}/ and add a launcher script to /usr/bin.

k thx. i guess i can figure it out. another question. how long normally does
it take to be a TU. my main goal is just contributing to arch but being a TU
would be nice one day
It really depends. Make sure you learn most he packaging tricks and
contribute to AUR. Once you are confident you know most tricks in the
book and you think we are also confident you did, get in contact with
one of the current TUs and ask them to sponsor you.
Alternatively you may ask one at some point what they think you should
improve before you apply to increase your chances.

At the moment i can do programs that use C** programming, of course some
dont compile but if they compile fine i can usually get them to work and
get it pkged correctly according to namcap
