Yes you need java to build java.

Coldfusion, Postgres and Java under FreeBSD
Dear friends, I've been studying/researching to understand what is the best OS for my production environment. I didn't know FreeBSD until this need, and now I'm fascinated with the stuff I've been reading about it. I have 2 servers with the following SW/HW: Server 1: Postgres 9 HSQLDB (Java) 2 cpu 5620 / 48 GB RAM Server 2: Coldfusion 9 and other java applications 2 cpu 5620 / 24 GB RAM I searched the web about performance and portability for these applications on FreeBSD, but I could not find any clear article about my doubts, that's why I'm asking for your help.

Re: Coldfusion, Postgres and Java under FreeBSD
Question #2: Is the JVM implementation for FreeBSD reliable and fast? Most of my software components are made in Java (including HSQDB) Since I have experience with Java on FreeBSD, I will try to answer this question. Java works very well for me under FreeBSD; I have not had a single problem with Java on FreeBSD. To install java, you can either install a pre-compiled JDK (called diablo-jdk) or compile all the JDK sources from scratch using the ports system. If you compile yourself from ports, you can choose either JDK 1.5 or JDK 1.6 (there may even be newer and older JDK versions that work fine). I'm running JDK 1.5 compiled from source on both my servers, and have had no problems in my Java applications. The dependencies list for 1.6 is a bit more involved, but the compile/install process is so automated that you won't be bothered with the amount of work it takes to install a JDK. So, in a nutshell, Java is very well supported under FreeBSD and you should consider this to be a non-issue. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Don't get me wrong, people working on FreeBSD Java project are doing a *great* job, but it was so much easier to just download the packages from FreeBSD Foundation thanks to the deal with Sun. I don't know what's the status of that deal right now, but there are no packages for 8-RELEASE and the packages themselves weren't updated in a long while, so I guess the deal's off. I'm running Java on FreeBSD right now, but I must say I'd probably stick to Linux nowadays if I had any say, at least until there comes a day when I'll be able to pkg_add -r openjdk7. -- Nino ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

java citrix client on seamonkey
I'm trying to access applications on my employer's network via Citrix. I'm using seamonkey as my browser on FreeBSD 7.3 Release. I have installed diablo-jdk-freebsd7.i386.1.6.0.07.02.tbz. and the icedtea6-stubs package. My employer's website for Citrix access facilitates the installation of the Java client for Citrix. When I try to open an application, I get a message stating that I haven't chosen to trust GlobalSign Root CA. I installed the certificates in seamonkey; but I still get the error message.

I would have tried using openjdk on FreeBSD; but I didn't know if it would do any good (or cause problems) since icedtea6-stubs requires diablo.

The JRE from java.sun.com has binaries for Linux, Solaris, and Windows-- which are the officially supported Java platforms-- and one could add Apple's MacOSX.

Seriously Ian, I question whether the FreeBSD authors are more interested in bumping version numbers than they are in producing a fully serviceable, quality product. The two aren't closely related. Major version # bumps in commercial software often happen because the vendor wants to sell upgrade licenses, but that motivation simply doesn't apply to FreeBSD. Major version # bumps happen in FreeBSD primarily because of major API changes which end up making an entirely new version of userland libc other libraries desirable. When was the last time you tried getting a native FreeBSD driver for an 'N' class USB wireless device? Never.

Eclipse causes segmentation fault in Java
Hey, I have a fresh FBSD 8-Stable/AMD64 installation and I want to run Eclipse.

Java in FF3.6
According to /usr/ports/UPDATING the Java plugin does not work in FF3.6. Is this a Java issue, a FireFox issue or a FreeBSD issue? I just noticed this today as I was going through looking through it because of the thread about upgrading from perl5.8 to perl5.10 (the instructions in UPDATING don't seem to be working for me, but that's not a concern as I'm not looking to upgrade to 5.10, yet). I didn't know if this question belongs here or on the -ports mailing list, but I am not x-posting.

Max UDP packet size + Java: weirdness
I'm trying to send large UDP packets between 2 programs written in the Java programming language. These 2 programs will be running on 2 different hosts which are far apart. The test code for these programs is only a few lines and is here: http://daffy.nerius.com/temp/BigUDPPacketTestClient.java http://daffy.nerius.com/temp/BigUDPPacketTestServer.java First, I noticed that I was able to send data that is 9216 in length between 2 FreeBSD 7.1 hosts (far apart in network distance) running Sun JDK 1.5.0_16-p9 (compiled myself from /usr/ports/java/jdk15). Any packet greater than this in length would not be sent, with the following error: Exception in thread main java.io.IOException: Message too long at java.net.PlainDatagramSocketImpl.send(Native Method) at java.net.DatagramSocket.send(DatagramSocket.java:612) at BigUDPPacketTestClient.main(BigUDPPacketTestClient.java:24) I then repeated these tests between 2 Linux hosts (far apart in network distance). One Linux host (the server) was running OpenJDK 1.6.0-b09, and the other (the client) was running Sun JDK 1.6.0_14-b08. This time, I was able to send 35512 bytes in a UDP packet before it crapped out. For my particular application, I would really benefit from being able to send large UDP packets. Does anyone know how to increase the max allowed size of UDP packets in a Java program? I assume it's something outside of the Java program, in the system or kernel or whatnot. Any help from network gurus would be appreciated.

I don't consider that to be a good idea, but it might be OK for local traffic Wow thanks. So it normally fits in 1 IP packet? Normal use of UDP is for un-sequenced data which can fit entirely within a single packet, where some drops, out-of-order delivery, etc don't matter. (Classic example is realtime streaming, where stream-based guarantees that TCP makes is exactly what you don't want...) (What about the MTU being like 1500 or something?) In that case, the most data per UDP packet you can send would be 1472 bytes. What's wrong with fragmentation? Any links to explain this? If you're lucky, then it's simply much slower than using PMTU datasize. Anything in the path which does NAT, VPN tunnelling, IPsec, or the like is probably going to have to reassemble all of the fragmented packets, adjust IPs/etc for NAT or break them up again for the new MTU for the case of tunnels, refragment the packets, redo checksums, etc. Google is your friend; the first few links like: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_fragmentation http://www.nil.si/ipcorner/IP_Fragmentation If you're not lucky, an intermediate router or firewall will simply drop the traffic entirely; maybe you will see an ICMP message, or maybe not, but it will be up to the app to deal with retransmitting the data using smaller sizes.

It works so perfectly that you really *ought to* use it to build the 3.5 version of eclipse. Using eclipse for Java, C, or Python is so good that nothing else makes sense. Probably others too, but I use it for python, C, and Java. If you think that eclipse is merely another editor, stand by for a shock. I use the $15 vi/eclipse plugin, so I have a interface that looks much (command-wise) like vim. I really don't buy software too often, but geeze, this is just too good to pass up. It's the fact that FreeBSD's native jdk1.6 is solid beyond all expectations that makes eclipse available. I've been running it from FreeBSD-current, starting java back at 8.0.

Re: which java on 8-release
Tried to get any permutation of XYZ-jre or XYZ-jdk installed on 8-rc1 and gave up. I see still no diablo for 8. What is the best way forward (and how am I so dense that no one else has even asked this question, I must be on the wrong track, no?) I saw a few posts about having to install diablo in order to build openjdk, so that's out too...what is the 'magic' port that people use? I just want to run all the apps that need java, I don't plan to write any java on my own. I compiled Java 1.5 from ports on 8.0 (both on i386 and on amd64). cd /usr/ports/java/jdk15/ make install clean (Then follow directions about downloading tarballs and placing them in /usr/ports/distfiles/ .) Along the way to building this port, it automatically installed the compat-7 mentioned above, as well as the diablo JDK. When the install was all finished, I uninstalled the diablo JDK so that I'd have just my freshly-compiled JDK 1.5 installed. I'm sure building JDK 1.6 from ports is similar: cd /usr/ports/java/jdk16/ make install clean I prefer JDK 1.5 because it's simpler and has less dependencies, but that's just me. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

This will enable you to build your 'seed' openjdk6 port; which you can package and transfer to other hosts. You can remove compat7 and diablo-6 once openjdk6 has been installed; as openjdk6 can be used to rebuild itself during upgrades.

tweak FreeBSD 8 for optimal java/weka performance
Dear freebsd people, in a few days I will install freebsd 8.0 amd64 on my 8GB RAM dual core machine and use the system as a application server. I will install the /usr/ports/textproc/weka toolkit, a program written in java. I will use the diablo jdk port in /usr/ports/java. Due to the nature of the research I will be doing I will need to max out my machine for optimal java performance. For example, I will use the -Xmx7g flag frequently to set the maximun java heap size to 7GB. Are there any other tweaks I should think of to get as much RAM for my java programs? Like building custom and small kernel, in order to minimize te size of the kernel? Let me know, thanks in advanced, Dino ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
