According to: http://www.freebsdfoundation.org/downloads/java.shtml We can have the 1.6 jdk. First thing I can think of is that we'll need some tuning if we want to support fbsd 6 and 7; also help from the java team would be greatly appreciated so that it can integrate nicely with all the work they've done. This is just a reminder, no work has started on that side yet afaik.
I think I have ebuilds that seem to work. They are fbsd7 specific though, we'll probably need a way to guess which tarball to use depending on if we're on fbsd7 or 6. Or just never support 1.6 for fbsd6 (which will probably be the simplest way). Anyway, I'd like to have reviews from the java team; and I'm not sure how to proceed: a) put them in the tree without keyword (will help integrating fbsd7 faster) b) put them in the bsd overlay c) attach them here

Created an attachment (id=160828) [details] env for jdk 1.6
Created an attachment (id=160830) [details] jre 1.6
Created an attachment (id=160832) [details] env for jre 1.6

one thing isn't clear to me: we wont have 1.5 jdk on fbsd 7 so we need to mask it, does that mean we have to mask java5 useflag too ?

The env files say Sun JDK and Sun JRE. This should be changed.
added and masked on 6.2 profiles; i'll have to modify the virtual too i suppose and mask them on 6.2 profiles fixed also the env file for old 1.5 versions thanks for the comments
