I am having a hard time getting java to work on openbsd.
I'll bet.
difference. I've googled for hours trying to find a solution, but can't seem to fix it.
Lucky for you! My google works: http://www.google.com/search?q=openbsd+java
I really don't want to download the source for java and compile... I am on dialup so every byte counts.
I am sorry for this, as this is a very involved process that requires "I agree" several times through the build. I beleive it took me two days work on a fast machine on broadband. Only because of Sun's web pages (which are very hard to navigate using lynx, of course).
netbsd and got it working through linux emulation as well. I had problems with netbsd so it didn't stick around, but I believe that java on bsd through emulation should be possible; probably just an oversight somwhere on my part. If anybody can give me some tips or tricks I would really appreciate it.
I would, but I would just be (poorly) repeating information that developers have painstakingly documented. http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq8.html#Programming
Thanks for your time, Marc
If you're just asking for somebody to provide you with a complete binary package of the completed build, then you are asking us to break the law. Sun wants you to build it yourself, so that is what you will have to do. Sorry, but this just sounds like you are complaining. You should really send your grievences to sun, not openbsd misc. OpenBSD can't change Sun's licensing policies -- they can only abide by them. Maybe all of this hoop jumping will make you realize that using this language is a bad career move? jdq
