The blackdown port of java 1.3 to arm
« on: January 08, 2004, 10:39:50 am »
Has anybody try\'ed out the port of java 1.3 to arm with the X11 rom?

You can get it here:        ftp://yrls.net/pub/blackdown/

Or  has anybody tested other JVM\'s  under the X11 rom ?

ok this is for XScale processor...

on my system (SL-5600, 1.32 ROM), it\'s complaining about glibc 2.3. I think I\'ve got glibc 2.2.2 (in /lib/libc.so.6).
where can I download this lib?

Hi there!

With the blackdown jre referenced above, command line apps work fine! That is great.

However if I try to create a simple swing application like the one found on the sun\'s tutorial, I am having this library missing, any idea where to get it?

# java SwingApplication
Exception in thread \"main\" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /home/root/j2re1.3.1/lib/armv4l/libfontmanager.so: libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3: cannot load shared object file: No such file or directory
        at java.lang.ClassLoader$NativeLibrary.load(Native Method)
        at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary0(ClassLoader.java:1382)
        at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary(ClassLoader.java:1298)
...

Thanks!

I\'ve had a similar issue on a whitebox running RedHat Enterprise 3.0 and the fix was to install  compat_libstdc++.  It seems that certain symbols that java assumes exist are not in the kernel headers.  Not sure if you can find this lib for the zaurus, but it fixed the problem on my whitebox.

I made a few researches, and libstdc++ seems to be shipped as part of gcc. So I guess I have to install the complete zgcc locally on the zaurus. For this I tried to follow cacko\'s instrcution:

On cacko\'s site, to install the zgcc3.3.1 on the zaurus, it is just mentionned that you have to put the zgcc3.3.1.img at /home/root and restart the zaurus and install the necessary kernel headers from the feed.

I put my zgcc3.3.1.img at /home/root and reboot and this produced no noticable effect. How do you decompress a .img? Also what package needs to be installed after this?

Any body has a clue?

Thanks!

You can convert  a .img  with the following free download:

ok,
the isomagic site mentionned in the above post is down and the download.com download does not work. I have been trying for 3 days now.
Would somebody have a copy of the utility or even better, provide a .tgz or .zip of the content of this zgcc3.3.1.img?
You could email it at pat at monmien dot com. Make sure to mention Zaurus User Group in the subject as I receive a lot of spam.
Any other way to have this zgcc3.3.1.img file content is fine of course.

Just let me know, I am stuck right now.

Thanks!
