If you are also wanting to enable the JRE plugin, see /usr/ports/devel/JDK/1.6/pkg/MESSAGE-jre which tells where the symlink to libjavaplugin_oji.so needs to be placed. |

I have the 6.1/i386 packages from the freebsd foundation and have never had any problems with the JDK or JRE, other then a dislike for compling Java code. I have however never gotten or put much effort into getting the browser plugins if any workin'

Those Java binaries for FreeBSD 6.1 should work on all versions till 6.3. Personally as I said earlier I though I would never have to ask how to compile Java as I can not stand Java to put it mildly. Actually as much as I like SUN hardware I could not care less for their software but unfortunately I have to use it on daily basis (MySQL, OpenOffice, and now Java) |

Although this may be a factor, a larger determinant of how much time building the JDK will require is prior installation of supporting packages.

I wouldn't know, I have not used the PBI files since, heck probably PC-BSD 1.1 or older. Over 'differences' of opinion about PBI and more then a few sour feelings on the matter, I don't use PBI files often: the last was installing Firefox PBI after flock broke to avoid compile times and package dependency lines. What part of Java causes you the most trouble? I've found the language itself quite logical, just the sun toolset and associated infurstructure to be a p.i.t.a. to put to work.

None. I do not use Java expect idiotic plug-ins because it is against my religion.
![]() Some idiot from the University I am collaborating with (I have to state for the record that sys admin at Math Department the University of Arizona where I work are much smarter than that) came with an idea that a specific tool can be accessed only through Java plug-ins. As a consequence I had to have them no questions asked. Do you really think I would install them? |

Heh, only if they twisted your arm into needing them :-P
That's partly why I asked.
