OpenJDK port: midterm report
After my quarter term report I worked on various bugs in the AWT port reported by testers, such as keyboard input problems. I also began reading up on the media kit in preparation for the next part of my project: the jsound port. This will bring audio and MIDI functionality to the OpenJDK port. Over the last week I made a start on the implementation for PCM input/output.
Additionally, since my last report I was given commit access at the official Haiku port project over at the OpenJDK project: http://openjdk.java.net/projects/haiku-port/. This is great as it will provide a more central place for collaboration and possibly attract more developers to the project. I have started merging my work into the repositories there.
Finally, as promised last time, I have built a new set of binaries with the latest revision of the AWT port, which is in quite a stable state: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/61946213/j2sdk-july-r2.tar.xz. The archive is about 160MB extracted. Any bug reports are much appreciated and should be sent to me via my contact form on this site.

Re: OpenJDK port: midterm report
Wow, amazing work! I can't believe it, but I am running the current Netbeans on Haiku. Thanks and please keep up the awesome work!
Re: OpenJDK port: midterm report
I agree! I was also playing with Netbeans yesterday. Very cool! I then tried to get IntelliJ to launch, but wasn't successful. I also couldn't get ThinkFree Office installed/running, but I think that just needs an edit to the installation shell script to see Haiku as a supported platform. If I get a chance later this week, I'll play some more, as this is pretty exciting progress.
Great work, Hamish!
