Depends on what you want to do with it. I like IBM's, and you need it if you want to run StarOffice or AnyJ (http://www.netcomputing.de/). Blackdown won't work with StarOffice because of the difference in threading models (green vs. native). I think Oracle has to have BlackDown. They come in a tar file, so just download them and extract them where you want them. http://www.blackdown.org/ http://www.ibm.com/developer/java/ Dan -----Original Message----- From: Charles Stack [SMTP:charles@codycomp.com] Sent: Tuesday, January 11, 2000 12:22 PM To: plug@lists.nothinbut.net Subject: [PLUG] Installing a Java VM Okay...considering trying to install a new Java VM (1.2????). It HAS to work with Netscape 4.7 and still be usable for other things (like development). I hear of Blackdown, IBM, and others who have Java VM's (and Borland with their JIT compiler). Which is the best? Where do I get them? How do I install them? This is a topic (like recompiling egcs) that isn't discussed (Probably for obvious reason). Pointers are appreciated.
