This README file provides information about the IBM(R) Developer Kit for Linux, JavaTM 2 Technology Edition, Version 1.3.1, 64-bit version.
The Developer Kit for Linux enables you to write and then run Java applications and applets. Note that the Runtime Environment for Linux is a subset of this Developer Kit and enables you only to run Java applications. If you have installed the Developer Kit for Linux, you do not need the Runtime Environment.
For the list of distributions against which the Developer Kit for Linux has been tested, see:
http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/java/jdk/linux/tested.html
The Developer Kit for Linux is a development environment for writing applets and applications that conform to Sun's Java 1.3 Core Application Programming Interface (API).
In general, any applet or application that runs in Version 1.1.8 of the Developer Kit for Linux should run correctly in this version. Applets that depend on Sun's Java 1.3 APIs work only on browsers that support Java 1.3 APIs.
To read Sun's documentation on compatibility, search for it on the Sun
Web site at http://java.sun.com.
Contents of the Developer Kit for Linux
The following list describes the contents of the Developer Kit package.
Compiles programs written in the Java programming language into bytecodes (compiled Java code).
Executes Java bytecodes. The Java Interpreter runs programs written in the Java programming language.
Use for testing and running applets.
Helps debug your Java programs.
Disassembles compiled files and prints a representation of the bytecodes.
Parses the declarations and documentation comments in a set of source files and produces a set of HTML pages describing the public and protected classes, interfaces, constructors, methods, and fields. Also produces a class hierarchy and an index of all members.
Attaches native methods to code written in the Java programming language.
Generates signatures for Java Archive (JAR) files, and verifies the signatures of signed JAR files.
Manages entities, including their keys, certificates, and the trust associated with them.
Manages a keystore (database) of private keys and their associated X.509 certificate chains authenticating the corresponding public keys.
Creates and modifies the external policy configuration files that define your installation's Java security policy.

Note: This README file and the accompanying license, copyright files, and demo directory are the only documentation included in this Developer Kit for Linux. You can view Sun's software documentation by visiting the Sun Web site, or you can download Sun's Software documentation package from the Sun Web site http://java.sun.com.
The documentation package is designed to be extracted into the Developer Kit for Linux software installation directory. If you download the zip file archive version, be sure to preserve the file path names when you extract the files from the archive. If you use pkunzip, specify the -d option.
The Developer Kit for Linux includes the IBM just-in-time (JIT) compiler (libjitc.so). The JIT compiler dynamically generates machine code for frequently used bytecode sequences in a Java application or applet while it is running.
All Developer Kit for Linux tools use the JIT by default. You can disable the JIT to help isolate a problem with a Java application, an applet, or the compiler itself. To disable the JIT, type the following at a shell prompt.
export JAVA_COMPILER=NONE
To enable the JIT, type the following at a shell prompt:
export JAVA_COMPILER=libjitc.so
To determine if the JIT is enabled, type the following at a shell prompt:
java -version
If a JIT is in use, one of the following messages is displayed:
(JIT enabled: jitc)
compiler = enabled: jitcIf no JIT is in use, one of the following messages is displayed:
(JIT disabled)
compiler = disabledAfter you install the Developer Kit for Linux, edit your shell script and add to your PATH statement the directory where you installed the Developer Kit. For more information about the PATH statement, see PATH considerations.
When you are installing on a Red Hat system, to allow the font server to find the Java TrueType fonts, run:
You must do this at install time and you must be root to run the command.
The Developer Kit requires the packages libgcc and libstdc++3 to be installed. Their rpm's will have names similar to "libgcc-3.0.1-3-1.ia64.rpm" and "libstdc++3-3.0.1-3-1.ia64.rpm".
If you intend to use the BEA Weblogic server, when you install the Developer Kit for Linux packages you must not install the IBMJava2-JAAS-*.rpm. The BEA Weblogic server contains its own implementation of JAAS.
The process you use to remove the Developer Kit for Linux depends on whether you
installed the RPM package or the compressed TAR package. See
Uninstalling the RPM package or
Uninstalling the compressed TAR package for instructions.
Uninstalling the RPM package
To uninstall the Developer Kit for Linux if you installed the RPM package:
rpm -qa | grep IBM
The name of the package is displayed.
rpm -e pkgname
where pkgname is the name of the package
that was displayed.
To uninstall the Developer Kit for Linux if you installed the compressed TAR package:
The Java tools are programs that are run from a shell prompt; they do not have a Graphical User Interface (GUI).
After installing the Developer Kit for Linux software, you can run a tool by typing its name at a shell prompt with a filename as an argument.
You can specify the path to a tool by typing the path before the name of the tool each time. For example, if the Developer Kit for Linux software is installed in /opt/IBMJava2-131/bin, you can compile a file named myfile.java by typing the following at a shell prompt:
/opt/IBMJava2-131/bin/javac myfile.java
To avoid typing the full path each time:
javac myfile.java
The PATH environment variable enables Linux to find executable files, such as javac, java, and javadoc, from any current directory. To display the current value of your PATH, type the following at a shell prompt:
echo $PATH
To change the PATH environment variable:
The CLASSPATH tells the Developer Kit for Linux tools, such as java, javac, and javadoc, where to find the Java class libraries. If you keep the bin and lib directories under the same parent directory level, the executable files can find the classes.
You need to explicitly set the CLASSPATH only if one of the following applies:
To display the current value of your CLASSPATH, type the following at a shell prompt:
echo $CLASSPATH
If you plan to develop and run applications using different runtime environments, including other versions that you have installed separately, you need to explicitly set the CLASSPATH (and PATH) appropriately for each application. If you plan to simultaneously run multiple applications using different runtime environments, be sure each application is run in its own shell.
If you want to run only one version of Java at a time, a shell script can be used to switch between the different runtime environments.
With the Applet Viewer, you can run one or more applets that are called by reference in a Web page (HTML file) using the APPLET tag. The Applet Viewer finds the APPLET tags in the HTML file and runs the applets, in separate windows, as specified by the tags.
Because the Applet Viewer is for viewing applets, it cannot display an entire Web page that contains numerous HTML tags. It parses only the APPLET tag and no other HTML on the Web page.
To run an applet with the Applet Viewer, type the following at a shell prompt:
appletviewer name
where name is one of the following:
For example, to invoke the Applet Viewer on an HTML file that calls an applet, type the following at a shell prompt:
appletviewer $HOME/filename.htmlwhere filename is the name of the HTML file.
For example, http://java.sun.com/applets/NervousText/example1.html is the URL of a Web page that calls an applet. To invoke the Applet Viewer on this Web page, type the following at a shell prompt:
appletviewer http://java.sun.com/applets/NervousText/example1.html
You can debug applets using the -debug option of Applet Viewer. When debugging applets, it is best to invoke Applet Viewer from the directory that contains the HTML file that calls the applet. For example:
cd demo/TicTacToe
../../bin/appletviewer -debug example1.html
You might find documentation on the debugger and its API at the following Sun Web site:
To obtain the IBM build and version number, type the following at a shell prompt:
java -version
On a non-floating stack Linux system, regardless of what is set for -Xss, a minimum native stack size of 256KB for each thread is provided. On a floating stack Linux system, the -Xss values are honored. Thus, if you are migrating from a non-floating stack Linux system, you must ensure that any -Xss values are large enough and are not relying on a minimum of 256KB.
To debug Java programs, you can use the Java Debugger (JDB). This debugger interfaces with the Java Platform Debugger Architecture (JPDA) provided by the Developer Kit for Linux. For native JNI binary programs, you can still use gdb for debugging.
The JPDA classes are included in the tools.jar file, which must be included in the CLASSPATH when running Java programs that use the JPDA (for example, JDB). Only socket communication is supported on Linux.
A new JDB debugger is included in the Developer Kit for Linux. The JDB starts com.sun.tools.example.debug.tty.TTY. The Java Virtual Machine Debugging Interface (JVMDI) is now fully supported. The jdb tool included in earlier versions is now included as oldjdb.
The new JDB uses the JPDA and allows the jdb example tool to attach to a listening Virtual Machine (VM) or to start a new debug session. It is invoked by the jdb command and can be used in the same way that oldjdb works.
You can use the JDB to debug remote Java applications, including Java applications running on remote machines over a TCP/IP link. To debug a remote Java program, start the java program as follows:
java -Xdebug -Xnoagent -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,
suspend=y
-Djava.compiler=NONE <other args> <myapp> <myapp class args>
The port on which the JPDA is listening is displayed. At the remote debugging machine, type the following:
jdb -attach <machine name or ip address>:<port>
When you launch a debug session using the dt_socket transport, be sure that the specified ports are actually free to use.
On double-byte character set (DBCS) systems, if you want to switch the input method, you must set an environment variable that represents the keycode you use for switching. Optionally, you can set another environment variable that represents the modifiers of the keycode.
To specify the keycode to use for switching, set the IBMJAVA_INPUTMETHOD_SWITCHKEY environment variable to some keycode definition in the java.awt.event.KeyEvent class, for example, VK_F4.
Optionally, specify modifiers of the keycode. To specify modifiers of the keycode, set the IBMJAVA_INPUTMETHOD_SWITCHKEY_MODIFIERS environment variable to some combination of the following three mask definitions in the java.awt.event.InputEvent class:
Separate the masks by commas.
For example you might set the IBMJAVA_INPUTMETHOD_SWITCHKEY_MODIFIERS environment variable to ALT_MASK, CTRL_MASK.
During Java initialization, the two environment variables are stored.
To be sure you have set the environment variables correctly, press a key and check it with the key combination you specified. If it matches, a Java pop-up menu with selectable input methods is displayed.
This Developer Kit does not ship Devanagari fonts (Devamt.ttf and Devamtb.ttf) in the jre/lib/fonts directory. Instead, where appropriate, Java uses the Monotype Unicode fonts (Times New Roman WorldType and Sans Monospace WorldType) shipped with the IBM platform or IBM software product to support Devanagari (Hindi) fonts.
IBM Developer Kit for Linux, Java 2 Technology Edition, Version 1.3.1, 64-bit version adds support for these CORBA specifications:
This Developer Kit supports all versions of GIOP, as defined by chapters 13 and 15 of the CORBA 2.3.1 specification, OMG document formal/99-10-07, which you can obtain from:
http://www.omg.org/cgi-bin/doc?formal/99-10-07
Bi-directional GIOP is not supported.
This Developer Kit supports Portable Interceptors, as defined by the OMG in the document formal/01-09-58, which you can obtain from:
http://www.omg.org/cgi-bin/doc?formal/01-09-58
Portable Interceptors are hooks into the ORB through which ORB services can intercept the normal flow of execution of the ORB.
Several new classes are introduced in the API to support Portable Interceptors. These are:
These classes are not part of the Sun Java 1.3 Core API, and could change in future versions of the IBM Developer Kit.
This Developer Kit has added support for the Interoperable Naming Service, as defined by the OMG in the document ptc/00-08-07, which you can obtain from:
http://www.omg.org/cgi-bin/doc?ptc/00-08-07
The default port used by the Transient Name Server (the tnameserv command), when no ORBInitialPort parameter is given, has changed from 900 to 2809, which is the port number registered with the IANA (Internet Assigned Number Authority) for a CORBA Naming Service. Programs that depend on this default might have to be updated to work with this version.
Several new classes are introduced in the API to support the Interoperable Naming Service:
These classes are not part of the Sun Java 1.3 Core API, and could change in future versions of the IBM Developer Kit.
The initial context returned from the Transient Name Server is now an org.omg.CosNaming.NamingContextExt. Existing programs that narrow the reference to an org.omg.CosNaming.NamingContext will still work, and do not need to be recompiled.
The ORB supports the -ORBInitRef and -ORBDefaultInitRef parameters defined by the Interoperable Naming Service specification, and the ORB::string_to_object operation now supports the ObjectURL string formats (corbaloc: and corbaname:) defined by the Interoperable Naming Service specification.
The OMG specifies a method ORB::register_initial_reference to register a service with the Interoperable Naming Service. However this method is not available in the Sun Java Core API at version 1.3.1. Programs that need to register a service in the current version must invoke this method on the IBM internal ORB implementation class. For example, to register a service "MyService":
where orb is an instance of org.omg.CORBA.ORB, returned from ORB.init(), and serviceRef is a CORBA Object, connected to the ORB.
This mechanism is an interim one, and is not compatible with future versions or portable to non-IBM ORBs.
A new runtime debug feature provides improved serviceability. You might find it useful for problem diagnosis or it might be requested by IBM service personnel. Tracing is controlled by three system properties. Set com.ibm.CORBA.Debug=true to turn on tracing. To format and add to the trace GIOP messages sent and received, set com.ibm.CORBA.CommTrace=true. By default, ORB tracing goes to the standard error stream, java.lang.System.err. To direct it to a file, set com.ibm.CORBA.Debug.Output. For example, to trace events and formatted GIOP messages to a file:
The trace will be sent to the files orbtrc.DDMMYYYY.HHmm.SS.txt and orbmsg.DDMMYYYY.HHmm.SS.txt.
Do not turn on tracing for normal operation, because it might cause performance degradation.
The content and format of the trace output could vary from version to version.
The following properties help you to tune the ORB:
The default fragment size is 1024 bytes. You can turn off fragmentation by setting the fragment size to 0.
By default, the ORB waits indefinitely for a response. Do not set the timeout too low, or connections might be ended unnecessarily.
If this property is set, the ORB starts listening as soon as it is initialized. Otherwise, it starts listening only when required.
The following properties may be necessary to enable non-standard behaviour for some vendor ORBs:
This property causes non-standard system exception, CORBA::OBJ_ADAPTER, to be thrown from org.omg.PortableServer.Servant._get_delegate when the delegate is null, in place of the standard exception CORBA::BAD_INV_ORDER.
When using an ORB whose POA implementation relies upon receiving the CORBA::OBJ_ADAPTER system exception without this property set, the following failure may be observed: org.omg.CORBA.INTERNAL:org.omg.CORBA.BAD_INV_ORDER: The Servant has not been associated with an ORBinstance
When running with a Java 2 SecurityManager, invocation of some methods in the CORBA API classes might cause permission checks to be made, which could result in a SecurityException. Affected methods include the following:
|
Class/Interface |
Method |
Required permission |
|---|---|---|
|
org.omg.CORBA.ORB |
init |
java.net.SocketPermission resolve |
|
org.omg.CORBA.ORB |

If your program uses any of these methods, ensure that it is granted the necessary permissions.
The ORB implementation classes in this release are:
These are the default values, and you are advised not to set these properties or refer to the implementation classes directly. For portability, make references only to the CORBA API classes, and not to the implementation. Theses values might be changed in future releases.
Thread pooling for RMI Connection Handlers is not enabled by default. To enable the connection pooling implemented at the RMI TCPTransport level, set the option
Java Remote Method Invocation (RMI) provides a simple mechanism to do distributed Java programming. RMI over IIOP (RMI-IIOP) extends the base Java RMI to perform communication using the Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) standard Internet Inter-ORB Protocol (IIOP protocol). This allows direct interaction with any other CORBA Object Request Brokers (ORBs), whether they were implemented in Java or another programming language.
For information about IBM and RMI-IIOP, see this IBM Web site:
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/rmi-iiop
The following documentation is available:
The Runtime Environment includes an enhanced BigDecimal class (com.ibm.math.BigDecimal) for Java programming. It is provided (with its supporting class MathContext) as an alternative to the java.math.BigDecimal class.
If you are using the java.math.BigDecimal class in a Java program and you want to access the class, you must change the import statement in your source code as shown:
Change import java.math.*; to import com.ibm.math.*;
You do not need to change any other code.
Sun's documentation for using jdb assumes that the JVM to be debugged is a HotSpot JVM. However, IBM implementations of the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) always run as a Classic JVM. When using IBM's jdb therefore, always assume that the -classic option has been implicitly specified and follow the guidance for debugging a Classic JVM. This requires that the -Xnoagent option be specified, unless the agent class is required in which case the -Xbootclasspath option should be specified to explicitly locate it.
A Java application, unlike a Java applet, cannot rely on a Web browser for installation and runtime services. When you ship a Java application, your software package probably consists of the following parts:
To run your application, a user needs the Runtime Environment for Linux. The Developer Kit for Linux software contains a runtime environment. However, you cannot assume that your users have the Developer Kit for Linux software installed.
Your Developer Kit for Linux software license does not allow you to redistribute the Developer Kit for Linux software files. The Runtime Environment for Linux is available for redistribution as a separate package. You can download the Runtime Environment for Linux package from the Web site where you obtained the Developer Kit for Linux package.
If you encounter a problem after you install the Developer Kit for Linux, check the following list:
If you use the Applet Viewer to run an applet that is in the CLASSPATH, you might get an AccessControlException in Swing.
To work around this problem, be sure that:
If sound does not work in your Java applications, your user ID might not have the proper permissions to access the audio device. Change the ownership and permissions of the audio device so that your user ID has the proper permissions.
This problem can be caused because the versions of Netscape Communicator included with TurboLinux 6.0 is for the Linux 2.0 kernel. To download and upgrade the Netscape Communicator to the Linux 2.2 version, see the following Netscape Web site:
Select the Download button and follow the instructions to install the latest version of Netscape.
Unable to load libjava.so library message.
If you receive a message indicating that the libjava.so library could not be loaded because of a symbol not found (such as __bzero), you might have a down-level version of the GNU C Runtime Library, glibc, installed. The Developer Kit for Linux thread implementation requires glibc version 2.1 or greater.
If the AppletViewer does not load applets, type the following at a shell prompt:
java -verbose sun.applet.AppletViewer
This command lists the classes that are being loaded. From this output, you can determine which class the Applet Viewer is trying to load and where it is trying to load it from. Check to make sure that the class exists and is not damaged in some way.
If you are writing a Java application, particularly a Java Native Interface (JNI) application, be sure that the application handles the EINTR return code correctly; otherwise the application will fail.
export LC_ALL="POSIX"
The maximum number of threads available is determined by the minimum of:
However, you might run out of virtual storage prior to reaching the maximum number of threads.

On the Linux X Window System, the keymap is set to: 64 0xffe9 (Alt_L) 0xffe7 (Meta_L), and 113 0xffea (Alt_R) 0xffe8 (Meta_R). You can check this by typing the following at a shell prompt:
xmodmap -pk
This is why the Developer Kit for Linux considers that Meta is being pressed together with Alt. As a workaround, you can remove the Meta_x mapping by typing the following at a shell prompt:
xmodmap -e "keysym Alt_L = Alt_L" -e "keysym Alt_R = Alt_R"
Note: This workaround might affect other X-Windows applications running on the same display if it uses the Meta-key that was removed.
Halfwidth Katakana characters might not be displayed correctly, because of the lack of font data for those characters. If you experience this, download JISX0201 TrueType fontset from your distributor.
On Japanese versions of Linux, you can use a Japanese input method such as Canna or FreeWnn. Use the following sections to avoid problems when using these Japanese input methods.
For all input method editor (IME) users
Canna users
If you are using the Canna input method with the kinput2 input method server, some visual feedback from the input method is not visible while you are in KIGOU input mode. To avoid the problem, move the focus onto the client window after the Auxiliary Control Window opens.
The SDK is provided as is, with no support unless you are entitled by means of an IBM support contract. For information on known problems and FAQs, refer to:
http://www.ibm.com/developerworksYou can report problems to the ibm.software.java.linux news group. This news group is monitored, but solutions to specific reports are not guaranteed. The newsgroup is available from the following news server:
