As you later saw, the JDK
is under
devel/jdk, & yes, this what is also known as Java Standard Edition.

If I were to install Netbeans, would OpenBSD install the rest of Java SE as a dependency, or will I have to get it manually?

If you install NetBeans, JDK 1.5 is required as a dependency. Unfortunately, JDK 1.5 is
not available as a package as can be seen in Section 8.3:
http://openbsd.org/faq/faq8.html#Programming
If you are interested, here is how this can be determined:
- Of course, OpenBSD users should install the relevant packages over compiling ports unless there are specific reasons to compile ports as explained in Section 15.1:
http://openbsd.org/faq/faq15.html#Intro
Nevertheless, the tools needed to answer your question are part of the ports tree itself.
- The manpage to ports(7) gives short descriptions to the make targets:
- print-build-depends
- print-run-depends
These targets are self-explanatory; they list the dependencies needed for building & execution.
- I run 4.5-current, so the exact versions will be different than what you will have on 4.4, but the process is the same.
print-run-depends with the /usr/ports/devel/netbeans lists the following dependencies:
Code:
This port requires package(s) "javaPathHelper-0.3 libiconv-1.13 openmotif-2.3.0p0 jdk-1.5.0.16p0" to run.
So to answer the original question, you will need to compile the JDK 1.5 port yourself in order to install or run NetBeans.
