- Subject: what's needed to compile Derby
Derby is a robust and featurefull all-java database
contributed by IBM to Apache. I was looking to make an
.exe out of derbynet.jar, et al. and tried to compile
them with gcj (both gcj 4.0.1 from FC4 and the latest
cygwin) and found javax.servlet and xslt/xml classes
(as well as some ssl-related things) missing as well
as java.lang.Enum (a jdk1.5 class). It would appear
it is not possible at this time to create a totally
free version of Derby that does not require installing
the Sun JVM. Does anyone have any other experiences?
