Ok, I got to looking into this and I think I would be able to do basic maintainance of the webinstallers if no-one else demands the job...
I have put together a hacked webinstaller that allows for the use of Sun Java 1.5. It compiles and runs on my system, but I haven't tested it for Sun Java 1.4... Can someone who has Sun Java 1.4 test this? It shouldn't affect your already installed freenet, even if it fails. But back up your config files anyway... I have attached a .zip file containing a new freenet-webinstall.exe (you will need to rename to .exe from .ex_ which I did to get around Gmail's filter, also do the same for the .bat file) and all the modified files so you may build them yourself if you don't trust me. You will need the rest of the stuff in the contrib\wininstall CVS and the packages listed in the howto readme file in order to compile your own. P.S. the installer is only 67KB versus 116KB for the old one because I used the Upx compression program recommended in the howto readme. Later (tomorrow?), I will work on a Bundled version that has Sun Java 1.5. Sun hasn't changed the bundling rules, right? Do we want to keep a bundled 1.4 version and a 1.5 version in the snapshots folder, like Frost does? -- I may disagree with what you have to say, but I shall defend, to the death, your right to say it. - Voltaire -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
