gcj also by default searches in jars in /usr/share/java/ext. The policy could add in 2.4:
Java libraries packages *may* add a sympolic link from /usr/share/java/ext/packagename[-extraname].jar to /usr/share/java/packagename[-extraname]-fullversion.jar.
In 2.1 Virtual machines:
If a virtual machine has a mechanism to search the the jars of one or more "extensions directories", it *should* use /usr/share/java/ext as the default such directory.
In 2.2 Java compilers:
If a Java compiler has a mechanism to search the the jars of one or more "extensions directories", it *should* use /usr/share/java/ext as the default such directory. -- --Per Bothner [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.bothner.com/per/
