What is the difference between Java Runtime Environment and having the java binary to run? Is there one? If I have the java binary do I not have the JRE?
rpm -qa|grep java java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-1.4.2.0-27jpp gcc-java-3.4.6-3.1 I know swing is not implemeted yet but do servlets use guis? IA64 is an entirely different beast.(I hope your joking suggesting x86 based java, An Itanium is far better than any of the current 64 bit x86 based chips) And no I am not joking if gcj is not made into a fully functional compiler I suggest you move away from java. As I see it there is no open source java compiler thus defeating purpose of any open source java programs. Thus one of the reasons I have against java in the first place. I also like data being passed in containers and not having to mold it to fit into an object but either or there. free and open source are two entirely different beasts. Open Source is community driven free is an enticement. So your stuck using a vendors products. What do you have against gcj? If it is missing something help implement it. Or tell what it is missing to the developers if they don't already know it is missing. Notice open office 2 was not released until it could be entirely built with gcj so my guess is someone in sun is also betting on it. Maybe the designers of the language.

Current versions of Tomcat require only a JRE, not a JDK. > I'm more interested in if it could use something from the gcj project? I hope you're joking. You need to install a real JRE. I would expect a 32-bit one to work on an IA64, albeit not as efficiently. It's unfortunate that you're stuck with a platform that's been superseded by much more reasonable 64-bit technologies. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
