I've got a fair amount of 'autobreak' logic in a
configure.in script shipped with rxtx if your
interested. I would not mind sharing that in hopes of
getting away from a few hundred emails a year.

Hi,
A little while back I was talking about writing a program to check a
user's system and from that information decide what JDK version they
should get. I was being stubborn about writing it in C, but I got over
that fairly quickly :) I'm now working on a shell script that looks at
libc versi

Hi,
I think I'm going to go ahead with trying to write a little C program to
check which library versions a system has and give the user some
suggestion about what JDK file she should download. In order to do this,
I need some information about where systems keep their libraries and

Hmm... I was thinking a smallish, statically-linked C program. I hadn't
thought about multiple architectures (I'm a lit

equally interesting would be to do a ping of the mirrors and

Hi,
Despite the pretty decent web documentation, this list seems to be
inundated with question of the form "I'm running and I'm
getting ", or "I have . What file do I
need to download?". I was thinking that it should be possible to write a
little piece of C code that would check the person'
