 See https://jdk-distros.dev.java.net/ for more details. At
 present due to a licensing issue with the SUN Studio C++
 runtime the JDK is only available as an installable bundle
 with installer changes to properly install the JDK and the
 required C++ libC patch.



 The installer worked fine for me - I knew what to select, etc. We need
 to improve on this, so  I'll send my wish list separately.

 I had to install the libC++ patch myself:
 Download http://patches.sun.com/all_unsigned/119964-06.zip
 /usr/bin/patchlibC 119964-06.zip

 I then ran setup_jdk, and the jdk was setup well. I'd have loved being
 able to ask the installer to install the JDK at /opt, but the present
 installer work just fine. JDK works out of the box.

 I took Eclipse 3.2 RC4 from
 http://ftp.jaist.ac.jp/pub/eclipse/eclipse/downloads/drops/S-3.2RC4-200605121600/eclipse-SDK-3.2RC4-solaris-gtk-x86.zip
  


 Startup time is about 5 seconds.
   Thanks for the feedback. Good to see that things are working as
   planned. Keep the feedback and bugs coming. Your help is
   invaluable.

 I'm a bit tired now, and will send my wish list + bug reports later
 this week, but it was worth returning to office to install 0.4.3a that
 I'd set to download this evening.

 Belenix will be my primary OS from now on. I want to get Wine working
 so that I can run the Lotus Notes 6.5.2 client on Belenix.
   Vivek Joshi in my team and on this list has been hacking away at Wine on
   Solaris. He can update further. Once Wine works on Solaris, it works on
   BeleniX since BeleniX is Solaris compatible.

Regards,
Moinak.

 Great work, guys :)
