Bug 209396 – dev-java/sun-j2me-bin-2.5.2 (update)

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Richie 2008-02-08 21:26:12 UTC]

Sun released a new version of the wireless toolkit. It works on x86 only but with the included patch you can run the ktoolkit also on amd64 (with the help of app-emul/emul-linux-x86-java).

FYI, 2.5.2 is already available.
...if I understood http://java.sun.com/products/sjwtoolkit/ right

sun j2me ebuild for 2.5.2

This ebuild is a modified version for the 2.5.1, updating the install.zip offsets among some other minors.

[Comment 5 Alessandro Re 2008-07-14 23:39:35 UTC]

I just uploaded a modified ebuild for the 2.5.2, which adds multi user capabilities, i.e. ktoolbar open and create new projects without problems in your home directory.

fixed sun j2me ebuild for 2.5.2

There is apparently no appdb directory, instead j2mewtk_template should be copied.
This fixed the emulator crashing on startup due to a SecurityException.

I needed to install the toolkit on x86_64, and apparently the 32-bit emulator requires a 32-bit java vm. Downloading it directly from Sun hits an error about the jar utility missing from emul-linux-x86-java.

Someone on #gentoo-java directed me to this ebuild, and it seems to be the proper alternative if you need WTK on AMD64.

Also, at this time the version is 2.5.2_01. Here's an updated ebuild (with hardcoded filename, so no renaming necessary after the manual fetch).

Why aren't these version bumps in the portage tree, by the way? Only 2.2 there.

Works fine for me. Please add this to main tree or to Java overlay at least.

[Comment 11 Michael Gaber 2009-09-21 18:56:09 UTC]

+1 for adding to the main tree

+1 on AMD64. Works without a problem ;)

[Comment 13 Petronio Coelho 2010-04-16 20:48:47 UTC]

+1 for working and +1 for amd64, the 2.5.2_01 ebuild and patch work perfectly.

Severity should be changed to normal as the ebuild in the repository no longer works (see bug 315641)

[Comment 14 Matti Bickel (RETIRED) 2010-05-13 21:14:25 UTC]

Thanks a bunch for the ebuilds and sorry for taking so long. I've just committed the latest to the tree.

[Comment 15 Anton Bolshakov 2010-05-16 02:43:15 UTC]

You can also replace
< BINARY="sun_java_wireless_toolkit-${PV/p/}-linuxi486.bin.sh"
---
> BINARY="sun_java_wireless_toolkit-2.5.2_01-linuxi486.bin.sh"

for future versions, but it's not important. Thanks!
