difference between Blackdown's JVM and Sun's?
What differences are there between Sun's JVM and Blackdowns? Is the Blackdown organization some kind of Java licensee? Thanks Matt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
a build for gcc3.1.x?
Many Gentoo Linux users, including myself, have chosen to build their systems with gcc3.1. Everything works great except for Java JNI interfaces (eg. the plugin and Mozilla). These expect to be linked against gcc2.x libs. It looks like this: LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library /opt/blackdown-jdk-1.3.1/jre/plugin/i386/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so [/opt/blackdown-jdk-1.3.1/jre/plugin/i386/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so: undefined symbol: __vt_17nsGetServiceByCID] What I think is required, is a build of the jdk on gcc3.1. This is bug #4694590 (http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4694590.html -- you have to sign in to view it). Is there any chance of providing gcc2 and gcc3 builds of the next/current release of the jdk/jre/java3d etc.? Matt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Not that it's a problem for a distribution like Gentoo Linux (we're using) where it's trivial rebuild things that need it when one of the ABI change... but that implies the thing has code you can actually recompile. I need to start looking for free alternatives I guess Matt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I can free up more HD space if I need to. You might consider Gentoo Linux. It will take you quite a few hours to install it on that hardware (as it builds everything from scratch), but after that you can say for sure that you've gotten the maximum out of your hardware. There is direct support for the IBM, Sun, Blackdown, Kaffe, Jikes, GCC3.x JRE/JDKs/compilers etc. Along with most other development tools (Netbeans, Eclipse, Jedit, Junit, Ant, etc.). There's also a great tool called "java-config" which will let you switch between several installed JDK/JREs very easily (great for testing). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
