I wouldn't know the first thing to do with Java, but jrocket-jdk-bin
has support for 1.4 and 1.5 on ia64.

Last time I checked, kaffe didn't provide a libjvm, which is used for
embedding Java in other applications (such as PHP).

compaq-{jdk,jre} were masked by YosWinK on July 7th. The latest version
was 1.3, upstream is dead, the packages are binary only, and they were
compiled against an older version of glibc. LD_PRELOAD Hacks Bug:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/84306

The alpha team is actively seeking a replacement. So far SableVM and
kaffe look the most promising. SableVM's sdk (not in the tree yet)
works for basic things, but doesn't compile ant-core because it is
missing tools.jar. kaffe doesn't pass all of the tests for 'make check'
but improvements are being made. kaffe also has a JIT for alpha, but it
is currently broken. We'll continue to work on the issue, but right now
Gentoo/alpha doesn't support Java.

Alpha has compaq-{jdk,jre} which requires nast hacks with glibc and
doesn't work - details are in virtual/{jdk,jre} bugs.

On PPC64 we have support for java in theory. In IBM JDK version 1.4 the Java 
JIT compiler is broken, so pretty much everything is broken - except things 
that are just run and not compiled.. (you have to "export 
JAVA_COMPILER=none") Version 1.5 on the other side does work pretty good.

So add PPC64 to the list of supported arches once 1.5 is stable ;-)

Regards,

Markus

[gentoo-dev] architectures which support Java

2006-07-20 Thread Joshua Nichols
Attention arch team types:

Could I get notice of whether or not your architecture is supporting
Java? The question comes out occaisonally, and it's a little embarassing
for me when I don't the status for a particular arch and its Java
support. So please, help me get in the loop :) I'd like to post this
info somewhere on our project page [1]

These are the archs I specifically know about:

Supports:
amd64
ppc
x86

Doesn't support:
alpha
hppa
sparc

Thanks,

- Josh
