FreeBSD supports Java and has for some time.  As far as I know, any JRE or JDK 
based on Java 1.4.2 or 1.5.0 will support both AWT and Swing.

A recent development made it much easier to obtain and run run "native" 
FreeBSD java packages, obviating the need in most cases to run a Linux binary 
and/or to compile the JDK from source.  See 
http://www.freebsdfoundation.org/downloads/java.shtml for more information.

AWT

2006-04-25 Thread Per Dahlstrøm
Hi FREEBSD

I am a happy user of FREEBSD, or rather I were happy but still a user.
Actually it is my WebHotel running FREEBSD, which I became aware of in a
not so pleasant way.

While developing my site I realised that I could not use Java AWT and
Swing packages. My Hotel supplier then informed me that AWT and Swing is
not available at the moment.

So, here is my question: Is it true?

If, yes. Are you nice guys thinking of making it available in the
future?

When is that future? (Fingers crossed)
