Hi Alex Thanks for the answer. I only tried Whitebox with the OpenJDK included in the Live DVD (OpenJDK 7 i presume?), and it did not work. Should have known there was a OpenJDK 8 available. If I install OpenJDK 8, will it break anything on an OsgeoLive install? Pieter On Wed, Mar 23, 2016 at

Hi guys Maybe a dumb question. Would be at all possible to replace the OpenJDK with Oracle's JDK in order to test Whitebox GAT http://www.uoguelph.ca/~hydrogeo/Whitebox/download.shtml ? It does not work with OpenJDK. Pieter ___ Live-demo mailing list

Thanks for the feedback Pieter. What I think we should do is use OpenJDK where possible, but for the next release, allow applications to make use of Sun java. Pieter, is geomajas based upon geotools? And as such, do you have any comment on how geotools works with OpenJDK? Any tips you can shar

Andre, Even, Jody, Thank you for your insights. Based on your advice, it sounds like it will be unwise to try to migrate all java based OSGeo applications to OpenJDK by our OSGeo-Live5.5 release due in March 2012. As such, I propose that Sun Java be included on OSGeo-Live5.5. I'm hopeful that

An easy one is to add the extensions into libs/ext and then run uDig without its "jre" folder so it uses the system default. Geosolutions (i.e. Simone or Andrea) is the best point of contact with respect to compatibility with OpenJDK. Personally I was not going to bother until Java 7 or Java 8
