- Move includes.nav*.sgml to share/sgml/navibar.ent and
<lang>/share/sgml/nabibar.l10n.ent.
- Move includes.sgml and includes.xsl to
share/sgml/common.ent, share/sgml/header.ent, <lang>/share/sgml/l10n.ent,
and <lang>?share/sgml/header.l10n.ent.
- Move most of XSLT libraries to share/sgml/*.xsl and
<lang>/share/sgml/*.xsl.
- Move news.xml and other *.xml files for the similar purpose
to share/sgml/*.xml and <lang>/share/sgml/*.xml.
- Switch to use a custom DTD for HTML document. Now we use
"-//FreeBSD//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional-Based Extension", which is
HTML 4.01 + some entities previously pulled via
"<!ENTITY % includes SYSTEM "includes.sgml"> %includes;" line.
The location of entity file will be resolved by using catalog file.
- Add DOCTYPE declearation to XML documents. This makes the followings
possible:
* Use of &foo; entities for SGML in an XML file instead of defining
{$foo} as the same content.
* &symbolic; entities for Latin characters.
- Duplicated information between SGML and XML, or English and
translated doc, has been removed as much as possible.

<b>September 18, 2002:</b> Greg Lewis has released a new patchset for
|
|
&jdk; 1.2.2.
|
|
<p>Of most interest to FreeBSD users is the inclusion of JPDA support.
|
|
The other significant changes are support for both
|
|
<a href="http://www.netbsd.org/">NetBSD</a> and
|
|
<a href="http://www.openbsd.org/">OpenBSD</a>.
|
|
|
|
<p>As previously stated, the patchset is available from
|
|
<a href="http://www.eyesbeyond.com/freebsddom/java/jdk.html">http://www.eyesbeyond.com/freebsddom/java/jdk.html</a>, although FreeBSD users are encouraged
|
|
to use the port in ports/java/jdk12.
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
<b>October 14, 2000:</b> Greg Lewis' native FreeBSD JDK 1.2.2 is now in beta
|
|
test stage and is now available in the ports directory (ports/java/jdk12-beta).
|
|
<br>While this is only for i386 architecture at the moment, this will allow anyone
|
|
running the i386 (most of you) the opportunity to build a native JDK2, and then
|
|
test them out against your favorite apps and custom code. If you use something
|
|
regularly, why not make a port of it? Instructions are available at <a href="../../doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/index.html">Porters Handbook</a>.
|
|
|
|
<P>If you want to try to build it by hand, due to SCSL concerns, you now have to go to
|
|
<a href="http://www.eyesbeyond.com/freebsddom/java/jdk.html">http://www.eyesbeyond.com/freebsddom/java/jdk.html</a>
|
|
and agree to the SCSL before downloading.
|
|
<P><b>Note</b>: This port will take a lot of hard drive space to build (around 250 MB).
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
<b>May 3, 2000:</b> Greg Lewis has just announced that the native FreeBSD
|
|
JDK 1.2.2 port has entered alpha test stage.
|
|
<br>In its current form, the port will build and run on most FreeBSD releases
|
|
(3.4, 4.0 and 5.0 on x86) and work is being done on the others (2.2.8 on x86
|
|
and 4.0 alpha). Most demo applets and applications run.
|
|
<br>Currently we are looking for enthusiasts who are willing to spend a
|
|
little time testing the new port. While this is not a trivial task, there are
|
|
clear step-by-step insturctions on how to build and use the port.
|
|
<br>The patches may be found, as usual on:
|
|
<br><a href="http://www.eyesbeyond.com/freebsddom/java/jdk.html">
|
|
http://www.eyesbeyond.com/freebsddom/java/jdk.html</a>

|
<b>March 22, 2000:</b> Greg Lewis releases the pre-alpha patches for enterprising
|
|
Java users to build their own native FreeBSD JDK 1.2.2 from. This
|
|
process is not for the faint of heart, and the resulting JDK is not for
|
|
production systems. Having said that, most AWT and Swing demo's have been
|
|
found to run. There is plenty of work to do, and we need all the testers we
|
|
can find. Patches and build instructions may be downloaded from
|
|

|
<b>January 30, 2000:</b> The Linux Blackdown Port Team has released RC4 of JDK 1.2
|
|
. It has been tested on FreeBSD 3.4-STABLE and later and runs all demo applets
|
|
and jfc demos. Several people have mentioned some problems running it with
|
|
Apache JServ. Until it can be added to the FreeBSD port tree, it can be found
|
|
at <a href="http://www.jmcm.org/tech/ports/linux_jdk.html">
|
|
http://www.jmcm.org/tech/ports/linux_jdk.html</a>. (Reported by Jose Marques)
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
<B>October 11, 1999:</B> Work has re-started on the Java2/JDK1.2 port.
|
|
Expect an early 'alpha' release in the coming weeks for FreeBSD
|
|
3.3-stable/ELF boxes.
|
|
|
|
<P>For most JDK2 development issues, you can use the JDK1 release and the
|
|
<A HREF="http://java.sun.com/products/jfc/index.html#download-swing">Swing</A>
|
|
releases provided by Sun for JDK1, which works very well under FreeBSD.
