Sun's Java stove-pipe didn't have the Solaris systems life-cycle in mind when they EOL'd those bits. Here's the InfoDoc regarding SUNWj3* (aka Java SE v1.4.2) support: <URL:http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-61-255468-1> Hopefully things will improve in Solaris Next. For Solaris 9, I would upgrade the SUNWj2rt and SUNWj3rt and related packages to the latest. John groenveld(a)acm.org |
