Java 5.0 on Linux/IBM P Series Power 4
Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has had any success compiling the Java 5.0 source on Linux for the IBM P Series Power 4. We are currently running AIX 5.2 and are looking to install a Linux partition specifically for Java.
The P Series Power 4 is the architecture I have access to which is currently running AIX but I can probably get my company to move to Linux but it will have to be on the P Series.
Am I heading in the right direction or is there another route to achieve the same goal?
Thanks in advance,
ses

Why do you need to compile Java 5? Just go get IBM's Java 5 beta SDK:
