Does Forrest 07 run on libgcj?
Hi,
i use the GCJ runtime libgcj on a fedora 5 maschine and i would like to
run forrest 0.7.
Without JRE Forrest says:
---
$ forrest -projecthelp
Apache Forrest. Run 'forrest -projecthelp' to list options
Unable to locate tools.jar. Expected to find it
in /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.4.2-gcj-1.4.2.0/lib/tools.jar
---
Do I have to replace libgcj by SUN's JRE 1.5?
Or where can I get this tools jar?
Thank you.
Andreas

Excellent. Thanks for the follow up.

libgcj is the GNU Java runtime and java-gcj-compat is a set of wrappers
and links (and eclipse is the Java compiler) that comes with Fedora
Linux. JPackage is Project, that offers different Java environments.
The JPackage Run Time Packages for GCJ (JRE) doesn't include a
tools.jar-like class. "JPackage development scripts for GCJ" (SDK)
contains these tools.
So I installed java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-devel-... and the forrest is
turning green on Fedora Linux.

I have no idea about libjcj specifically since I don't know what it is.
I can tell you that you do not need 1.4, I can also tell you that
tools.jar has been a standard part of the java distribution since the
very early days.
I'm guessing that libgcj is supposed to be a Java Virtual Machine, if
this is correct then it must provide the classes that are in tools.jar
(assuming it is complete). You ay need to adjust the classpath set in
the ant build files to accomodate your setup.
If you get this working please provide some documentation for us to add
for those coming after you.
