<P>These releases do not require a Motif license as they are compiled
|
|
against a Motif library which allows public distribution of the JDK
|
|
libraries and binaries.

JDK1.1.8 for FreeBSD
|
|
--------------------
|
|
Fixed in this release:
|
|
- Printing from the JDK should now work reliably.
|
|
- Updated to now use the assembly version of the interpreter. Performance
|
|
should be increased.
|
|
- Better handling of signals like DIVIDE and SIGFPE which are trapped and
|
|
handled correctly now.
|
|
- The ELF version should work better with AWT/Swing applications. The
|
|
FreeBSD project donated a more modern copy of Motif that should avoid
|
|
some weird X errors that occurred previously.
|
|
|
|
For best results, we suggest you run the most recent releases of FreeBSD,
|
|
which are 2.2.8 for the a.out releases, and FreeBSD 3.2R, to take advantage
|
|
of the fixes in those releases.
|
|
|
|
If you find bug or have bug-fixes you'd like to see integrated, please send
|
|
email to 'java-port@FreeBSD.org' so we can make future releases even better.
|
|
|
|
Known Bugs/Limitations:
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
The number of sockets that can be used at any one time is hard-coded ahead
|
|
of time (at this time, it's 2000). This is not necessarily a limitation of
|
|
the FreeBSD kernel, but coming up with a 'dynamic' scheme is non-trivial so
|
|
none of the developers has written the code, and and no-one else has
|
|
provided any patches to the development team. If this is important to you,
|
|
we welcome any patches to provide a more 'dynamic' scheme that doesn't limit
|
|
the number of file descriptors (sockets).
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
To make a a distribution that works without X *and* with X, two binaries
|
|
are provided. The first is linked without X, and is the standard binary.
|
|
The second binary is linked against a static version of X, and against
|
|
the shared X libraries. The version used is controlled by the setting
|
|
of the DISPLAY environment variable, which is used by X to determine
|
|
where to send the output.
