The Java Development Kit for FreeBSD is now released. For more information check out: http://www.FreeBSD.org/java/ Of interest: To make a a distribution that works with X/Motif *and* without X, two java/jre binaries are provided. The first is linked without X, and is the standard binary. The second binary is linked against a static version of Motif, 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. Fixed in this release: - X is no longer required to run non-AWT applications (see above). - JDK's built on 2.2.2 should now work again. - The AWT now correctly sets the Window name. - Fixed obscure bug that could cause a core dump if you hit a button in a dialog box multiple times. - Fixed bug where SHMEM wasn't released when using images, causing a leak. In addtion, a JRE and the patches used to build this release are made available. - The FreeBSD Java team This is the moderated mailing list freebsd-announce.
