Can anyone tell me? I'm no java guy but regarding the latest commit message I think 1.4.2: jdk14 java Java Development Kit 1.4.2 Update to 1.4.2p5. Important changes since last patchset: . jdk14 port is now JDK 1.4.2 based! . JavaWS distributing with jdk . Runway problem fixed (fork() is no more problem for java apps) . Sound support updated . IPv6 support overhauled . Drag'n'Drop support fixed (require open-motif mods) As for now there's no more outstanding issues with this port! FreeBSD port is also got a important of changes: . optimized setup is now default (to get debuging bins/libs use WITH_DEBUG) . bootstrap jdk autodetection. If WITH_LINUX_BOOTSTRAP is not set, then it checks all known to work JDKs installed. If nothing found, forces to install of linux-sun-jdk14 . Because of above change there's no NATIVE_BOOTSTRAP option anymore. If native jdk14 is installed, it will be used by default.

Re: Which version of Java to use?
I can only speak on my recent experience with FreeBSD 5.1. I failed installing most of the ports (I tried lots so I don't remember, don't know if I did the right steps) the only port that worked perfectly was the Linux-Blackdown 1.3.x series. Of course you have to install the linux base libraries. Then I downloaded the Sun JDK 1.4.0 version for Linux and it also works fine, I tried the 1.4.1 version and it core dumped. I've been using the 1.4.0 setup with Jakarta Tomcat 5.1 and OpenEJB 0.94 without problems (development enviroment). Bye Javier Soques __ Do you Yahoo!? Protect your identity with Yahoo!
