J2SE 1.4 patches/updates
[282 byte] By [MajorBloodknocka] at [2007-9-27 7:31:31] 
Hi!I've have encountered several bugs in J2SE 1.4 since its release. I've noticed too that some of these bugs have been fixed by Sun.Does anyone know if there is some place to download patches or a new, bug-fixed release of J2SE?Thanks in anticipation!
Eventually there will be a 1.4.1 or a 1.4.01 or something like that. Keep checking the place where you downloaded 1.4 from. (P.S. It's "Bloodnok" according to the book I have.)

I really wish Sun would make patches and updates available at a finer-grained level. I wouldn't mind an alpha or non-stable build of the JDK, and would accept a disclaimer to the effect that I know this a development build and won't complain to Sun about problems with it.
But this doesn't seem to be the way Sun likes to work. For example, the bug regarding double-precision floating point performance: math with doubles is 1.5x - 4x slower in 1.4 than it was in 1.3. And Swing/Java2D uses doubles heavily.
I want the choice. Are you listening, Sun?
Cheers,
Colin
