Can I use the apps running free Java???
Hi, Is it possible to run the following combination of applications on a Debian AMD64 Etch installation, using nothing but free software (I know it can using Sun's SDK, because that is what I am running now): - Java 1.5 - Swing client - JBoss 4.03SP1 or higher - Eclipse 3.1.1 or higher If that is possible, are there (pointers to) any known problems? -- Groeten, Joost Kraaijeveld Askesis B.V.

Well don't know. I know java is best avoided. :) Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Those based on GNU Classpath are close to full 1.4: http://developer.classpath.org/support/ (roadmap) And we are working on full 1.5 support. Some nice progress can be seen: http://gnu.wildebeest.org/diary/index.php?p=139 If that is possible, are there (pointers to) any known problems? Well don't know.
