For those that do not want to be on the list let them go to the archives and read the messages you pass back and forth via this list. Spam does not have a place in my mailbox, nor do I have the time to read it, or desire to receive it. I joined this list to give and receive info on java for linux. I for one vote to make it a members only list. Just my $0.02 worth. Cheers, Bruce... -- E-Mail: Bruce J.

I also sent a mail message asking for the diffs so we could make it available on all the linux platforms. I use both RH 5.x on my Intel box, and MkLunix on my PPC. And if they can make the port team's efforts easier in porting the JDK to linuxthreads for native threads port I am all for it. This is not an easy task. I am one of the folks working on this and it is slow going. There is a big difference between the threads Sun uses and linuxthreads which are in reality pthreads. I too have not heard back from them, as soon as I do I will share the message with the group! Cheers, Bruce... -- E-Mail: Bruce J.

I would assume they may have done the same thing if they did not get the source as a commercial for resale organization. Which brings up an interesting point... They may not be able to release it due to shipment of commercial Linux product with the JDK/JRE/RT attached to it. Are the members of the port team liable if the JDK we produce gets shipped with a commercial product??? Some food for thought Cheers, Bruce... -- E-Mail: Bruce J.

Re: very obscure bug in JDK1.1.6
THis is a known bug (I can confirm it on my sys) and there was a post a
little while back from Stephen Wynne about a fix being done but not yet
incorporated into the release.
BTW, does anyone know if this bug fix will be available soon, as this is
a rather annoying bug.
Thanks,
Maksim.

And a glibc-2.0.7-14 IIRC, with debug multithread supporet. Have yet to install it. I exchanged e-mail with Vania Joloboff @ OpenGroup. The release is delayed for a month, priorities. They do not even have the time to change the web pages right now, which announce the release for July. Sigh.

Text font & color when setEditable(false)
I'm kind-a new to Java so please bear with me... Is there a way to stop the font and color from changing when one sets an java.awt.Component to non-editable? I'm using a frame in an application and when I add a button that is setEditable(false), the font and color changes to a shaded sort of style. -- Glenn Valenta Engineering http://www.coloradostudios.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://ouray.cudenver.edu/~gavalent/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] <-main mail account
RE: java map engines
Craig, If you are still interested, there is a java graph package developed by a guy at USQ called graph.tar.gz. He no longer seems interested in supporting it and it has a few bugs, most of which I have fixed. In addition, I have also added map plotting to the package (firstly for simple linear projections and more recently for any general projection you care to develop a MapProjection sub class for). If you want it, send me an e-mail and I'll forward the original package (it may be hard to find) and the full source including my mods. There are a couple of data files you can adapt to get the basic map database - the CIA Database and The World Digitised. Peter | -Original Message- | From: B.
