| Subject: When will JDK 1.2 beta be released?

| I want to use a package that requires Java2D and Java3D which are
| new for JDK 1.2 beta, so I was wondering two things (1) when/if do you
| think you will release version 1.2? (2) is it possible to just download
| the Java2D and Java3D classes and stick them in my classpath?
|
For Java3D you will need a shared llibrary that will interface between
the Java3D classes and OpenGL (for the Linux world that will be
Mesa...). You could download either the Solaris version or the Win32
version of Java3D and rip the classes from there, but you still need
the native library......
For Java2D I am not really sure, but I think more or less the same
story applies.
Cheers,
Addy.
