GCJ on RedHat 6.x

2001-03-21 Thread jmsalvo

I am running RedHat 6.0 ... but with a lot of things upgraded, such as ( but not
limited to ):

kernel 2.2.18, using reiserfs
glibc-2.1.3 ( required by Blackdown's JDK 1.2.2 / 1.3 )

There are others, but these are the ones relevant for java on linux.

Now I want to try out GCJ. I have downloaded the relevant RPMS. However, if I
understand correctly the output at the end, I also need to replace my current C
preprocessor ( cpp package ).

This have me though for a while if it is worth it, since upgrading the cpp
package will probably also require me to upgrade glibc, etc, etc

.. which may in turn break compiling other programs.

Furthermore, the only cpp-2.95.x out there is not even from RedHat. ( 2.96 are
the unstable ones, IIRC as per GCC committee ) Here is result of rpmfind on cpp:

http://www.rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=cpp&submit=Search+...
http://www.rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/contrib/libc6/i386cpp-2.95.1-3.i386.html

Has anyone here using RedHat 6.x tried installing gcj-2.95 using the RPMs?

Here is the output:

[root@jsalvo-desktop java]# rpm -Uvh --test gcc-libgcj-2.95-4.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
gcc-java = 2.95 is needed by gcc-libgcj-2.95-4
[root@jsalvo-desktop java]# rpm -Uvh --test gcc-java-2.95.1-3.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
cpp = 2.95.1 is needed by gcc-java-2.95.1-3
[root@jsalvo-desktop java]# rpm -qa | grep cpp
cpp-1.1.2-12


Thanks,

John

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Java 2 Standard Edition v1.3.1-FCS for Linux

2001-07-09 Thread jmsalvo

Is there a list somewhere that identifies how this ( or any JDK for that 
matter ) is different from Sun's official JDK 1.3.1 for Linux x86? ( e.g.: 
additional bug fixes, etc. )
