I have got the JDK 1.1.7 to build using the 1.1.6v4a diffs, and can run simple
programs without the awt. I understand there is not a lot of point to this and i
am more than happy to wait for the porting team to work their magic, but it has
certainly been a very useful learning exercise for someone who knows very little
about this stuff.
I made two changes to the source code to get this working:
- in iomgr.c i changed dlerror to be const char * so as to agree with dlfcn.h
(i guess this is a difference between solaris and linux?)
- in awt_Frame.c i changed long into int32_t for pGetIconImageSize.
The only problem i have found when running is that it does not find the shared
libraries :^(
Perhaps someone has had the same experience and could correspond direct with me
about this, otherwise i will spend my time usefully reading some more while i
wait for the proper diffs.
thanks
