Hi!

I am currently looking into the JDK/JRE issue. The idea is
to have a CSWjre6 package containing the JRE and a CSWjdk6
package, which depends on CSWjre6 and adds the JDK.

So, the layout will look like this:

   /opt/csw/java/jdk/latest	links to ../jdk6 (or jdk7 later)	CSWjdk  
(depends on CSWjdk6)
   /opt/csw/java/jdk6		links to jdk1.6.0_07 (or _08 later)	CSWjdk6
   /opt/csw/java/jdk1.6.0_07	contains stuff from archive		CSWjdk6
   /opt/csw/java/jdk1.6.0_07/jre	contains JRE inside JDK			CSWjre6
   /opt/csw/java/jre/latest	links to ../jre6			CSWjre (depends on  
CSWjre6)
   /opt/csw/java/jre6		links to jre1.6.0_07			CSWjre6
   /opt/csw/java/jre1.6.0_07	links to jdk1.6.0_07/jre		CSWjre6
   /opt/csw/java/man		links to ../jdk/latest/man		CSWjre
   /opt/csw/java/jre6/man	links to ../../jdk6/man			CSWjre

I compared the JRE embedded in the JDK. The following files
are only in jdk1.6.0_07/jre:

   lib/sparc/libsaproc.so
   lib/sparcv9/libsaproc.so
   lib/sparc/libattach.so
   lib/sparcv9/libattach.so

What are these for? Just take the JRE from the JDK add them to the  
CSWjre6?

When the permit from Sun arrives I'll give the package
a final shot.


Best regards
