We are proud to announce the release of IcedTea6 1.4.1.
The IcedTea6 project provides a harness to build the source code from
OpenJDK6 (http://openjdk.java.net) using Free Software build tools.
What's New?
-----------------
- Fixed version string: Set PRODUCT_NAME to OpenJDK, unless doing a CACAO
build (set to IcedTea).
- Plugin fixes.
- Re-implemented VisualVm.
-----------------
The tarball and nosrc RPM can be downloaded here:
http://icedtea.classpath.org/download/fedora/java-1.6.0-o...
http://icedtea.classpath.org/download/source/icedtea6-1.4...
The following people helped with this release:
Deepak Bhole, Andrew John Hughes, Tomas Hurka, Mark Reinhold, Mark
Wielaard, Lillian Angel
We would also like to thank the bug reporters and testers!
To get started:
$ hg clone http://icedtea.classpath.org/hg/release/icedtea6-1.4.1
$ cd icedtea6
Full build requirements and instructions are in INSTALL:
$ ./configure [--enable-visualvm --with-openjdk --enable-pulse-java ...]
$ make
The new package has been built into Fedora 11 (rawhide) and should
appear in the yum repositories in a couple of days.
