Re: anyone got jar working with jdk1.2???

[c . p . lau]

hi bruno

I also use rh5.2, but my jdk1.2 from blackdown doesn't work on my
computer. I got a error something like "cannot open
libstdc++-libcso.2" (I cannot remember). I checked my "/usr/lib". I
really didn't have that. So, can you tell me where i can download that
lib, or can you send it to me.

thank
alvin

2.0.37ac9?

[Dan Creswell]

Just wondering - the status page says the multicast sockets issues are
fixed in 2.0.37ac9 - the latest patch I can see over @ Alan's site is
ac8 - is there a later patch or is it a typo?

Cheers,

Dan.

glibc 2.1

[Swan]

hi,
 
i tried using jdk 1.1.7 w/ glibc 2.1.999*** 
(222) i think, it didnt work, calling upon redundant things must be (forget) - 
the point being i reinstalled glibc 2.0 and it worked fine. I had to put baq 
glibc 2.1 as i use it w/ other programs.
 
i thought maybe jdk 1.2 might work.. i get out 
of memory errors and cant do anything..
 
ive tried searching for a libraries requirement 
page but could not find one.. am i to wait until glibc settles down? or jdk 
matches properly w/ glibc 2.1? or is there a way around the out of memory error 
in jdk1.2?
 
 
thanx for any advice
 
Dan

Re: Problem running Jikes on Linux with JDK1.2

[Osvaldo Pinali Doederlein]

You may have some invalid zip in your classpath, e.g. classes.zip, which
doesn't exist in JDK 1.2.  If you have multiple JDKs installed (1.1 and 1.2)
and want to switch, you will be forced to change the CLASSPATH in the
switch, removing all the 1.1-only zips/jars and inserting all the
1.2-specific jars like rt.jar and tools.jar.  This is because jikes is not
smart enough to find the core packages automatically.

Re: Problem running Jikes on Linux with JDK1.2

[Jean-Pierre Dube]

Hi,

I found my problem. When I moved my code from NT to Linux I forgot to
change the semi-colon in my classpath to a colon. That error caused
Jikes to go bizzark. The same problem will appear under NT if I don't
change the classpath from a colon to a semi-colon. It's  weird error
message for that kind of a problem, maybe the error message should be
changed.

Thanks

Create a symlink from the "missing" library to libstdc++-2.8.0 and this
will fix the problem.

Somebody apparently compiled the silly thing on Debian.

Apache JServ and Linux JDK 1.2

[Jett Marks]

I have had success getting Apache 1.3.4 and Apache JServ working under
Blackdown's JDK 1.2.  One difference I noted between our environments is
that I'm running the 2.0.37 kernel instead of 2.2.x.  I did not perform
extensive testing since it worked the first time I tried it (last
weekend).

Many thanks to the Blackdown team.  I've also gotten the Java IDL
tutorial to work on the first try (last night).  Naming service and all.

Re: anyone got jar working with jdk1.2???

[Sorin Lingureanu]

You can find rpm versions of jdk1.2 at this url:
ftp://tuiasi.ro/pub/os/linux/jdk-1.2/ 

and 
I hope soon on ftp://contrib.redhat.com.

The packages are the following:

jdk-1.2pre-v1-1.i386.rpm
jdk-devel-1.2pre-v1-1.i386.rpm
jdk-demo-1.2pre-v1-1.i386.rpm

They were built on a 2.2.3 running  RedHat5.2.

The last one to get the goodies? You gotta see things in perspective. We (the
Linux community) have a rocksolid OS, a great Java implementation and a whole
world full of _free_ software in our hands :o)

About HotSpot: I really wouldn't know. Would like to see it myself too. Linux
allways comes last (JDK 1.2, RDMBS's etc), but things are changing I guess...
for the good.

system limits

[pridemor]

I'm sure I saw a note on this list about increasing the limit on
file descriptors and/or processes by modifying the kernel
source, but I can't seem to find one.  Can someone point me
in the right direction?  Is it "safe" to increase these limits?
What are the tradeoffs?

BTW, yes this IS  java-linux related, because I'm trying to
run a java application that needs a lot of threads and sockets
in its current implementation (and it runs fine on NT :-( ).

Where is swing.jar? And: Support for CORBA?

[Joerg Bartholdt]

Hello everbody,

I downloaded the JDK1.2 from www.blackdown.org, although I don't know
the difference to the JDK directly from Sun.
I want to write applets with Swing, and the Sun pages tell me how to
enable Swing classes in my Netscape 4.5 Browser:
1. Find swing.jar in your Swing distribution
2. Copy it to netscape/java/classes
Very nice, but the blackdown distribution does not have a swing* file.
Which .jar contains the swing classes?
By the way, this would also be interessting for the CORBA classes ?!
Which version of CORBA does the JDK1.2 support (1.0, 2.0, 2.2 ?). For
example, the Java ORB from ORBacus uses a class called BOA (while
initializing the server) which does not exist in the JDK1.2 API. I was
told that since CORBA2.2, BOA is obsolete and was replaced by a POA
(what ever this is).

Non of the FAQ answers this questions. This is why I try this way of
asking.

Cheers,
  Joerg

P.S.: As I am not subscribed to your mailing list, could you please send
an answer directly to my email address? Thank you.

In the 2.0 series, /usr/src/linux/include/linux/tasks.h and
/usr/src/linux/include/linux/fs.h (NR_FILE, NR_OPEN).

Within reason.  I haven't experienced any problems or heard of any.

Increased kernel memory usage, and slightly reduced performance.

libstdc++-libc6.0-1.so.2... and the Linux mess (IMHO)

[Osvaldo Pinali Doederlein]

Create a symlink to your 2.8.0 lib, and should work...

Now, maybe this is not the appropriate list for the question, but I can't
get latest gnome working because of the infamous __register_frame_info crap,
and moving to the glib 2.1 will cause other problems.  The status of system
libraris in Linux is becoming a MESS.  Even when thing work, I hate being
forced to install multipleversions of several libraries because nobody puts
enough work on binary compatibility.  If you're trying to take over the
world, remember that the "get the source and rebuild" strategy will never
work for more casual users (like me) because we won't put up with the
additional work, nor less skilled ones because they won't know how to deal
with sources and arcane building tools...

The JDK is a good example of problems that will become more and more common.
We can't get the sources (at least right now), so the binary-only
distribution must be bulletproof and work on a wide range of installation.
This will gradually become the hard reality for lots of software, as Linux
moves to corporation, desktop and general commercial use.  people who work
on core things like kernel, C and C++ libraries, and fundamental stuff every
app depend on, should drop immediately some of the "hacker anarchy" and
produce a more stable and compatible system.  In the current creature, the
kernel-hand doesn't know what the C-hand does, the C-hand doesn't know what
the X11-hand does and so on, and everybody releases updates of their thing
every other week without doing all the expected integration and regression
testing.  I predict this will become a nightmare if the popularization of
Linux brings a wealth of application while such chaos continues.

I am a Java type, and I plan to support Linux wholeheartedly when and if
Linux gets strong Java support (which is near thanks to the great work of
Blackdown), BUT I will change my mind if I have any significant deployment
trouble in Linux... things like JREs and extensions (including the ones
requiring native code) should install in a plug-and-play fashion, or Linux
is no good for me.

Platform Independance

[Sajeev C.V.]

Sirs,
I am new to Java and Linux. I have heard about Java being portable across 
various platforms. Kindly tell me how I can transfer the java source file I have 
created under Windows to Linux.
Kindly pardon me if the doubt is stupid or out of context.
Thanking you,

Activism for Java on Linux

>changing I guess... for the good.

Does anyone with knowledge of Sun politics know how we can effectively
lobby for more support for Java on Linux? I really don't understand
what's going on at Sun. The official word is they are "supporting"
Linux, but the results they've delievered have been less than
exciting. No offense, Blackdown guys! You're doing great. But have you
really gotten any help from Sun?

The part I don't understand is every single person at Sun I've ever
talked to is enthusiastic about supporting Linux. There's a good
technical case to make for it now, too - Java is moving towards the
embedded systems market (notably, through Jini), and Linux is better
suited for this application than pretty much any other mainstream OS.
Is there some internal politics going on that is making Linux be
second fiddle to Windows?

Anyway, if anyone with some understanding of Sun is interested in
working on putting together some effective activism, please contact
me. Maybe we can make something happen.

Re: Where is swing.jar? And: Support for CORBA?

[Nathan Meyers]

Swing is part of the core in JDK1.2; the Swing classes no longer live in
a separate file.

If you're looking to run 1.2 applets in a browser, you need to 1) wait
for 1.2 to appear in browsers, or 2) use the JDK1.2 plugin, which is
available on some platforms (NT and Sun, and maybe some others). If all
you're looking to do is run 1.1 applets with Swing, Sun makes 1.1
versions of Swing available -- that's where you'll find swing.jar. It's
pure Java, so getting and using swing.jar with your browser doesn't
involve the Blackdown code at all.

There is one place you can run 1.2 applets today: the appletview that
comes with the JDK. And there's one mystery browser: I don't know where
HotJava is with 1.2 support.

Question concerning the 1.2 port

[Samuel A Mullen]

Blackdowners,

I've been checking out the site on a pretty regular basis to see if 1.2 is ready
for the big time and I just saw that the row for i386 is all green.  Does that
mean that it's out of the beta stages and ready???

If it's not ready yet, is there an expected date?

Thanks,
Samuel Mullen

It means that it's now finally *in* the beta stages. You can download a
prerelease from the Blackdown site.

Re: Where is swing.jar? And: Support for CORBA?

[Christopher Hinds]

Here is an answer to both of your questions  :

1.) prior to Java2(AKA JDK1.2) all swing components where contained in the
 *com.sun.java.swing* package in the swing.jar file which you are referring
to( swing.jar , swingall.jar ).
In Java2 all of the swing components where made standard extensions , that
is
they are now contained in *javax.swing.* package and are found in the rt.jar
along with the JDK\JRE .
Thus there is no longer a swing.jar in JAVA2. The instructions you found on
sun's web site
referred to using the swing components in NAV 4.5 with the swing releases
prior to JAVA2.

2.)  Definition BOA  - Basic Object Adapter
  Definition POA  - Portable Object Adapter

  OMG , in CORBA 2.x specification deprecated the BOA because ORB implement
ors could not agree  upon or implemented the BOA interface differently
making it almost impossible to use an object  developed for IONA's OrbixWeb with
Visigenic's ORB. To remedy this incompatibility OMG
  specified POA for CORBA 2.x compliant ORBs and as the name implies is
compatible across
  all CORBA 2.x ORBs.

  Lastly the OMG packages are also contained in the rt.jar file in Java2 and
are at least CORBA 2.x
 compliant.

  Cheers

Re: Will we ever see HotSpot on Linux

[Christopher Hinds]

I seriously doubt that Sun will license the source to anyone for porting
purposes. If we see it at all it will be in binary form, and IMO is
also long shot.

Re: Platform Independance

[pridemor]

Tried ftp?

Java tools don't mind end-of-line conventions.  Personally, I'm using
Samba to mount my Linux home directory as a share on my NT machine.
Works great.  I can do anything from either machine and it all stays in
synch.  (I work mostly on Linux, but have to use PVCS on NT - yuck).

Good luck,
Russ

Re: jdk1.2pre-v1 problems on glibc-2.1

[bryan vold]

You need to read the release notes.  jdk1.2v1 is compiled with static Motif,
so it isn't even seeing your LessTif.  The problem is that your libraries need
to be updated.  I believe it says that they compiled with the egcs-1.1.1
(g++) compiler, which I believe ships with the correct shared library.  Need
to upgrade, I guess.

Don't upgrade then, let someone else test the cutting edge stuff.  The
point of linux is that you have choise. In the commerical OS world, you
never see the new libraries, until after the commerical application
developers and OS developer have tested things.

In linux commerical distributions with commerical support, provide this to
commerical requirements.

I guess this is a good line for supporting OSS.

This is IMHO is the free/open source (software 8) world's strenght.  Not
tried down by one group's (BG anyone) vision of the world.

Distribution development, just by it scalar is bound to run into problems 
like this.  But then it's your choise where or not to be on the cutting
edge.

Re: Activism for Java on Linux

[Jean-Pierre Dube]

What worries me is that SUN will not give HotSpot for free so I don't
know how the licensing will be worked out for the Blackdown
organisation. I also read an article where the say that SUN was the last
major company to endorse Linux I guess that they are scare of Linux and
want to protect their beloved Solaris. I'm also a bit tired of SUN
marketing "Write Once Run Anywhere". I think that again marketing and
technology are going seperate ways. SUN is not playing it fare. On one
hand they want to protect their OS and on the other hand they want to
domintate the world with Java but their playing it safe not to disturb
their OS conterpart that why all new releases of the JDK are for
Solaris-Sparc, Solaris-Intel and Windows. In my opinion they should drop
Solaris-Intel and replace it with Linux, since nobody is using the damn
thing. They also want to fight the dominance of the Windows platform but
they don't want to support Linux directly wich right now is the biggest
competitor to Windows. Maybe I'm complaining to much but hey six months
after everybody else we have JDK1.2 in beta and now all the other API's
are comming maybe were in a better position then the Mac-OS.

Thanks

We have a beta here, funny, just one single .dll file.
The final version will be distributed as a commercial product, unfortunately.

Release date BTW is announced 27th april in Paris but Windows and Solaris only.

In a similar vein, the status page also mentions that one requires the

I´m a subscriber to java-linux-digets, perhaps you also should subscribe
to this list, inspite of java-linux. Since sbb´s release of the
jdk1.2-pre1, i read about 120 questions like yours about the missing
libstdc++-libc6.0-1.so.2 and about 60 answers like : do a ´ln -s ´ from
your installed libstdc++ to libstdc++-libc6.0-1.so.2 . On my box it
looks like this :

ln -s /usr/i486-rh52/lib/libstdc++.so.2.8 \
/opt/Java2/jre/lib/i386/libstdc++-libc6.0-1.so.2

Hello Dan,

according to Alan Cox, the problems are solved in his 2.0.37ac8 patch.
This is the newest one, there's no 2.0.37ac9 patch yet. Unless there are
some new problems found in 2.0.37ac8, the JDK 1.2 status page has
a typo.

Re: Will we ever see HotSpot on Linux

[Camilo Wilson]

According to the Sun reps at LinuxWorld, when 1.2 is released for Intel
it will include the same Sun JIT compiler as its Intel Solaris port of
Java.  I don't think this is HotSpot (which is not available on any
platform yet, anyway), but at least it is a reasonably effective, and because
it is certified by Sun on Solaris/386, stable just-in-time compiler.

Re: Activism for Java on Linux

[Osvaldo Pinali Doederlein]

We must have in mind that Sun must find a sound musiness model for whatever
they do, no matter how much goodwill they may have.  Sun has stockholders,
Linux hackers don't...

Then, I think Sun could like the combination of SPARC hardware + Linux OS +
Java infrastructure and applications.  But maybe they should be convinced of
that.

JDK 1.2 is late to Linux, but the new code base is supposed to be easier to
port and evolve in multiple platforms thanks to JNI; and the major work is
the first port, so I expect future releases to come in sync or very near to
Solaris & Windows.

(On the other hand, Linux for SPARC is not second-class... at least RedHat
distribution seems to put Alpha and SPARC in equal footing with x86.)

It's natural that Sun supports Solaris better than other systems.  I'm
amazed when people expect Sun to write lots of software for competing
platforms and release it free.  Even the Win32 JDK is only well supported
because they have no other choice (thanks god Sun didn't rely totally on
Microsoft to do Java on Win32!)...  the vendors (or advocates, for OSS)
should take the job of porting to their preferred platforms.   What must be
required from Sun is a level playing field to do such work.  I suppose this
is true with the community license.

And maybe we shouldn't put all our bets in HotSpot, which is still
unavaliable.  What about putting some pressure in IBM?  Their VM is still
1.1, but it burns rubber here.  :)  And their stuff is highly portable, they
alrady support more platforms than Sun's JDK and they can support Linux real
quick if they have a good reason to...

segmentation fault

[Doug Meyers]

Hi group!

I'm relatively new to linux and I think my question is related more to a setup
or machinne problem than to a java problem but I'm hoping somebody can point
me in the right direction.
I'm using JDK 1.16 and Swing 1.03. Both seem to run fine. I can run the Swing
examples and use java but when I try to run either Simplicity or Freebuilder I
get a 'segmentation fault'. I haven't had any luck finding a reference to this
in any FAQ. What kinds of things should I be looking for?
I'm using Redhat 5.2 on an Acer Aspire with 64 megs of memory.

Thanks for any help.

Re: Activism for Java on Linux

[Nelson Minar]

I realized in my first message that I was a bit unclear. I want Sun to
put Java on Linux on the same footing internally as Java on Windows or
Java on Solaris. I have no idea if this is realistic, because I don't
know enough about Sun politics. I think it is a reasonable goal
business-wise for Sun, though, and I think it would benefit the Linux
community.

I'm not arguing here that Sun should make Java all free, or even
generate special licensing terms to Blackdown. Personally, I'd rather
see all that effort go towards developing a free Java alternative,
like Japhar+Classpath. I'm asking that Sun devote internal effort to
Linux ports. From what I've heard, this wouldn't even be that much
work for them.

I firmly believe that Java is the future of Internet programming. And
I believe that Linux is best positioned to be the future of Internet
operating systems. How do we bridge the gap? My impression is that the
current deal with Sun isn't working out very well. Blackdown team,
correct me if I'm wrong. So maybe another tack is appropriate? I have
no idea if these goals are realistic, or even a good idea. But I want
to raise the issue, see what people think.

Another question for the mix - what's up now with the production
version of the JDK? Is there any hope of a Linux port of that? I hear
rumours that it is quite good.

>What worries me is that SUN will not give HotSpot for free so I don't
>know how the licensing will be worked out for the Blackdown organisation.

I don't expect Sun to give out HotSpot. I just want them to make a
commercial version for Linux as well, and release it at the same time
as the Windows version.

>I also read an article where the say that SUN was the last major
>company to endorse Linux I guess that they are scare of Linux and

That's the politics of which I want to understand more. Personally, I
can't imagine anyone inside Sun thinking Solaris x86 is a viable long
term product. Is that accurate? And what's going on now with the SCSL?
Sun isn't just licensing the JDK under SCSL, it's licensing Solaris,
even the Sparc chip design. That's pretty amazing. Is this new
semi-open source movement in competition with Linux? Spiritual
cooperation? Unrelated?

The plus in the Production version is platform-specific tuning, so this
cannot be ported!  Over time, I hope the Linux code will receive lots of
Linux-specific tuning, especially after the sources are made available.

That would make sense.  There are other people making money on this niche --
providing high-performance Java on Linux -- like Tower.

Everybody is scared and clueless about OSS.  Look at the also recent Apple's
initiative with their Darwin open kernel, or IBM's jikes... I guess they are
probing the open source universe with increasingly braver moves, to check
how it works and if they can survive on it.

a few issues with jdk1.2 pre release

[Rachit Siamwalla]

Hi, I was playing around with the pre-release JDK 1.2 and it seems very
well done. However, I had a few problems and was wondering whether
others had similar problems (I looked at the bug report and none of
these were on there). I haven't looked too deeply into these problems
yet (but will soon and send a formal bug report to blackdown with some
sample code). This app has been tested using Sun's JDK 1.2 on Windows
NT40.

1. I use Exceed 6.0.1.0 (an NT X Client) to test my java app on Linux.
However, when I start my java app, a JFrame pops up, but then hangs the
entire X client. It looks like an Exceed problem at first, but then
again this NEVER happens with other X applications on Exceed. The app
loads normally if I am running X locally on the the machine. I was
wondering whether other people have similar problems with other
platforms / XClients.

2. Drag and Drop seems to be a problem. I get exceptions thrown when I
start dragging:

Exception occurred during event dispatching:
java.awt.dnd.InvalidDnDOperationException: The operation requested
cannot be performed by the DnD system since it is not in the appropriate

at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.run(Compiled Code)

I forgot to turn off the JIT when running. If anyone needs the stack
trace with the line numbers, email me, and I can regenerate the
exception.

3. I tried to "stress" test my application by clicking and dragging
randomly, and after quite a while, some code within X segfaults (looks
like a call from JNI) JDK1.2 then throws a Monitor Dump. This is hard to
narrow down because it doesn't seem to be a deterministic error. This
could possibly be an X problem, too. The version of X we are using is
the one shipped with RH 5.2 (X version 3.3.3.1)

Sorry if this email is a little vague and does not really help the
blackdown team much, but I am just trying to see whether others had the
same / similar problems so that I know that it isn't a problem with my
code / environment.

I can duplicate your problem with Exceed.
When I try to run Swing apps it locks up the minute a window is formed,
if I use an AWT app it creates the window and starts drawing then locks.

This could be due to the new rendering system.  I know that alot of
stuff on solaris really dogs when running on remote X.

BTW - the user side of X is called the "X Server" since it provides X
services to the programs that you are running which are called "X Clients"
To get the terminology straight...

I use two different X Servers on my Win32 machine.  I just tried each
and they worked fine running my Java applications.  I do not know of
any good reason an X Server should crash just because an X client did
something - be it garbage data or complex rendering.

I am using the NetManage X-OnNet package and the XFree86 server compiled
for Win32.  Both seem to run just fine.

The other problems will need to be looked at.  The pre-release was
really a pre-beta - There are bound to be many issues that need to be
cleaned up (including install/etc)

Serialver on JDK1.2

[Costin Manolache]

Hi,

I have a small problem with JDK1.2:
$serialver
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError:
/home/costin/local/jdk1.2/jre/lib/i386/libawt.so:
/home/costin/local/jdk1.2/jre/lib/i386/libawt.so: undefined symbol: XmQmotif
at java.lang.ClassLoader$NativeLibrary.load(Native Method)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary0(Compiled Code)

at java.awt.Toolkit.loadLibraries(Compiled Code)
at java.awt.Toolkit.(Toolkit.java:903)
at java.awt.Component.(Component.java:258)

I assumed is something wrong with my libraries, but everything else is working
fine, including appletviewer and
Swing/AWT applications.

Does anyone have run serialver?

Costin

Because of an error in a makefile serialver and policytool don't
work in pre-release 1 . It's fixed in the next release.

Problem Downloading JDK

[Steven Rubenstein]

Why, when I try to download the JDK (bz2 files) from

ftp://iodynamics.com/pub/mirror/linux-jdk/JDK-1.2/i386/pre-v1/

do I get gibberish instead of a download?

Re: Problem Downloading JDK

[Rachit Siamwalla]

Your browser thinks it's just a big text file, and tries to display it.

Right clicking on the link should bring up a pop-up menu that allows to
"Save link As..." and then you can save it to a file.

If you're using Netscape, it may not recognize bz2 as a binary format and
may treat it as a text file.  This is bad.  Try using wget or ftp instead.

Since Java is Shipping 1.2.1 with numerous fixes already in Swing 1.1.1B will Final release have the corrections?

[John Hawk]

An example is the recent Command Console program 
that fails to run on 1.2 prev.
Secondly, can I set default Font in the JDK 
?
 
The Font's are HUGE eve though I added Gimp 
fonts and all is well there.
 
Hate to sound negative for a pre-release I have 
had no major problems with the exception of bug submmited earlier.
 
Keep up the good work and have a nice 
day!
