Re: Java


Brian,

   Cygwin and Java (Sun's Java, not just gcj) can coexist. I use both on my
laptop on a (sometimes) daily basis.

Good morning all,

I'm brand new to cygwin but a veteran Unix engineer so I do know my way
around...  I've successful compiled all of my C/C++ code in cygwin and
it's all running good now.  However, I need java.  There is a higher
level user interface that goes on top of our C/C++/X/Motif stuff that's
all done in Java.

On Solaris and Linux I've got /usr/java and we rely on jdk's and jre's
from version 1.4.1 to 1.6.  Of course with Solaris and Linux I just
download the platform version I'm using and I'm done.  Is there such a
creature for cygwin?  Can I get a Sun /usr/java package running under
cygwin?

Thanks,

-brian
