you can find versions 1.7 and 1.8 in the experimental branch, maybe they support these applets

|
|
I have trouble finding a 64bit browser plugin in this latest snapshot.
I got both the jdk and the jre, eg. jdk-6u12-ea-bin-b02-linux-amd64-08_dec_2008.bin and jre-6u12-ea-bin-b02-linux-amd64-08_dec_2008.jar and unpacked them:
| Code: | | $ sh jdk-6u12-ea-bin-b02-linux-amd64-08_dec_2008.bin |
unpacks locally after agreeing the EULA
| Code: | $ unzip jre-6u12-ea-bin-b02-linux-amd64-08_dec_2008.jar
$ java -jar jre-6u12-ea-bin-b02-linux-amd64-08_dec_2008.jar |
asks graphically for install dir and unpacks there.
I suppose in both cases the plugin should be in the jre*/plugin directory ?
It is not there, so where would it be ?

Seems the plugin is NOT included in the amd64 package while it IS included in the 32bit package.
Oh Sun, oh sun! I can't believe it! |

For me icedtea did emerge without a problem. It's in the java-overlay which can be managed with layman.
1) emerge layman (if not already merged)
2) add java-overlay
3) emerge icedtea6
4) eselect icedtea as java-nsplugin
5) works (hopefully), if not have a look at the icedtea-thread in the forum

Are there ebuilds for these versions? If yes, where can I find them? In a portage overlay? |

The applet still does not work with 1.8...

How is OpenJDK different from IcedTea? I thought IcedTea is packaging OpenJDK but has to use a different name due to trademark reasons. |

I think that icedtea to openJDK is like jre to jdk

That's right.
| Quote: | | How is OpenJDK different from IcedTea? |
I did not say it was different. I said I am using that and its working fine. I pointed it out because it is better to install that and get rid of sun-jdk and emul-java for good. Now, I have only one JDK in the system for java needs and firefox plugin needs. If you want to know how, just follow the link I gave. |

The plugin in question is jre/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.so. Symlink this to /usr/lib64/nsbrowser/plugins/javaplugin.so and the plugin works!
see https://jdk6.dev.java.net/plugin2/#INSTALLATION |

Furthermore, this package contains a working javaws executable. Until now I always got the error message "javaws is not available for sun-jdk-1.6 on x86_64", but this version works fine.  |

I cannot seem to find it in there...
The i586 package has
| Code: | jdk1.6.0_12/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so
jdk1.6.0_12/jre/lib/i386/libjavaplugin_jni.so
|
The amd64 one hast the latter one too, but that's _not_ the browser plugin..
EDIT: Wahoo I spoke too soon, there is a plugin2 in there.. jre/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.so \o/
Here goes some modified ebuild: http://gimpel.ath.cx/svn/gimpel/dev-java/sun-jdk/ - it's not even in package.use.mask for >= .12_beta2 already.
| Code: | # eselect java-nsplugin list
Available 32-bit Java browser plugins
Available 64-bit Java browser plugins
[1] icedtea6
[2] sun-jdk-1.6-plugin2 current |
Let's see if it's better than IcedTeaPlugin..
EDIT2: Hell, it works perfect. I tested the interactive map on map24.com (doesn't work with icedtea), and that wicked http://www.musicexplorer.org thingy (no chance with icedtea either)
