+ There has been a big update to bsd.java.mk. However, this update
+ is mostly backwards compatible, so it shouldn't affect most java
+ port maintainers. There is some new functionality and minor
+ changes worth documenting here though.
+
+ bsd.java.mk now provides a new set of macros to be used by ports that
+ require a JDK. When USE_JAVA is set, the following variables may be set
+ in order to give to precision regarding the requirements of the port:
+
+ . JAVA_VERSION
+ A list of space-separated suitable java versions for the
+ port. An optional "+" allows you to specify a range of versions.
+ (allowed values: 1.1[+] 1.2[+] 1.3[+] 1.4[+])
+ (NOTE: Used to be set by bsd.java.mk)
+ . JAVA_OS
+ A list of space-separated suitable JDK port operating systems
+ for the port. (allowed values: native linux)
+ (NOTE: Used to be set by bsd.java.mk)
+ . JAVA_VENDOR
+ A list of space-separated suitable JDK port vendors for
+ the port. (allowed values: freebsd bsdjava sun ibm blackdown)
+ (NOTE: Used to be set by bsd.java.mk)
+ . JAVA_BUILD
+ When set, it means that the selected JDK port should be
+ added to build dependencies for the port.
+ . JAVA_RUN
+ This variable works exactly the same as JAVA_BUILD but
+ regarding run dependencies.
+
+ Here are some of the macros defined after setting USE_JAVA:
+
+ . JAVA_PORT
+ The name of the JDK port (e.g. java/jdk14)
+ . JAVA_HOME
+ The home of the JDK port in the local base
+ . JAVA_PORT_VERSION
+ The version of the JDK port.
+ (NOTE: Used to be JAVA_VERSION, see above)
+ . JAVA_PORT_OS
+ The operating system used by the JDK port.
+ (NOTE: Used to be JAVA_OS, see above)
+ . JAVA_PORT_VENDOR
+ The vendor of the JDK port.
+ (NOTE: Used to be JAVA_VENDOR, see above)
+
+ Plus many macros for the commonly used java executables:
+
+ APPLETVIEWER, JAR, JAVA, JAVAC, JAVADOC, JAVAH,
+ JAVAP, JAVA_KEYTOOL, JAVA_N2A, JAVA_POLICYTOOL,
+ JAVA_SERIALVER, RMIC, RMID and RMIREGISTRY.
+
+ bsd.java.mk 2.0 is mostly backward compatible with the previous
+ version, save for the notes above and changed internal variables.
+ Using the new features is strongly encouraged, since the old
+ bsd.java.mk 1.0 features will be deprecated and may be removed in
+ the future.
+
+ You will find more detailed info (as well as a quick tutorial) at:
+ http://www.esil.univ-mrs.fr/~hquiroz/freebsd/bsd.java.mk-2.0.html

Hopefully galeon2 can catch up to peoples' expectations from
