How to make JDK1.2-pre-v1 as my default JVM

1999-04-01 Thread Joe Lin
Hi, I have realized after many agonizing hours that some of my problem is really due to Kaffe. I'm currently running RedHat 5.2 and I downloaded JDK preview v1. I set the PATH variable to point to "/usr/jdk1.2/bin". However, this does not prevent Kaffe VM to kick in if I simply type "java .."

I don't suppose anyone knows of / can recommend a hack to get around the windows PLAF block in v1.2 of the Linux JDK? Is such a thing possible? Is the block integral to the VM or is it located somewhere in the runtime libs? I'm just looking to hack it to the point w
