(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

Hi,

The latest 32-bit and 64-bit Java runtime packages are available at

http://www.smokey01.com/gjuhasz/packages

Tested with my puplet Puli and with tahrpup64.

In these packages, jreclicker is already integrated thus you can run .jar files by simply clicking on their icon in ROX.


Have fun!

Java runtime versions uploaded:

• jre-1.7u55-i586.sfs
  jre-1.7u60-i586.sfs
  jre-1.8u5-i586.sfs

All tested with Puli.

Regards,

gjuhasz

I uploaded jre-1.8u5-i586 as a .pet file, too.

Download from

http://www.smokey01.com/gjuhasz/packages/

Tested on Puli with simple apps such as http://www.java2s.com/Code/JarDownload/ ... or.jar.zip; and http://sourceforge.net/projects/hodoku/ ... hodoku.jar

and also with more challenging ones such as http://ivorymahjongg.com/#releases

I propose to invoke the Java runtime module by the small jreclicker.pet that runs a .jar file on click. Available at the same folder http://www.smokey01.com/gjuhasz/packages/

Have fun!

Edit: I corrected the link to my packages because I moved my packages from smokey01.com/gjuhasz/sfs to here. The folder behind the obsolete link includes a pointer to the actual storage place. Sorry for the inconvenience.

thanks...works fine in Precise571, ovprecise and raring3992

I uploaded jre-1.7u71-i586.pet to

http://www.smokey01.com/gjuhasz/packages/

Tested on Puli by clicking on jar files mentioned in the previous posts.

Note that the official Java 7 support discontinues in April 2015. Visit http://java.com/en/download/faq/java_7.xml for more details.

Edit on Oct 22:

I uploaded jre-1.8u25-i586.pet, too.

There are no remarkable differences in the performance of the just uploaded versions and their predecessors.

I could not check the security improvements. However, assuming that the updates really patched some security holes, I removed the obsolete (and maybe less secure) runtime versions from Puli library.

Have fun!

thanks

Uploaded jre-1.7u71-i586.sfs and jre-1.8u25-i586.sfs.

They are OK in Puli. I would be grateful for any feedback about how they run in other puplets.

Have fun!

Hi,

I uploaded jre-1.7u75-i586.sfs and jre-1.8u31-i586.sfs to

http://www.smokey01.com/gjuhasz/packages/

They run fine in Puli.

Have fun!

Hi,

I uploaded jre-1.7u80-i586.sfs and jre-1.8u45-i586.sfs to

http://www.smokey01.com/gjuhasz/packages/

They run fine in Puli.

Note that with this release, the jre-1.7 series lost (the free) Oracle support thus I decided to pack the 1.7u80 (PSU) version instead of 1.7u79 (CPU). Not too much difference between them in size, practically nothing in performance.

Have fun!

They run fine in Puli, so probably they are OK for other puppies, too.

New java version is available on the ASRI édu forum :

• Java 1.8u45 (PET)
  • http://forum.asri-education.org/viewtop ... f=39&t=313

On another thread, a member ask if there is a JDK for version 8. Could/should JDK SFSs/PETs be co-located here? And, are the library positions maintained no matter if JRE/JDK?

Thanks for new JavaRE package, added to

http://www.puppylinux.org/wikka/JavaRuntimeEnvironment



For anyone struggling with Mozilla integration there is a new symlink plugin location:

Edit: Create directory ~/.mozilla/plugins if it does not already exist

ln -s /usr/java/java/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so ~/.mozilla/plugins/libnpjp2.so

Also, it seems JavaRE now requires every site to be made a security exception to run?[/code]

Thanks for the tip, darkcity.

Yes, symlink in ~/.mozilla/plugins/ was broken.

One might want to check Java Control Panel-Temporary Internet Files.
For some reason, Java wants to use ALL of your disk space for storing temp files by default.
I gave it 100MB, should be enough.

Also, unchecked TLS.1.0 & 1.1 under Advanced tab.
Let's see what happens...

Cheers!

I would be interested in a list of applications you run With JRE.
I found a makagiga run with JRE8u45Lin-i586.sfs: 53 M

my jre 8u65 and how to install it (any basically any 8u**'s) is mentioned here
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 254#871254

Great instructions from @ScsiJon highlighting the need for a standard consistent library structure across PUP distros to make upgrades simple and easy.

I have often wondered if debian and slackware place JAVA using the same library tree? Or is there placements consistent with Oracle presentation of JAVA tree structure the same? And, is that consistent with OpenJAVA library tree?

If so, PUP's job for JAVA and upgrades would become simple.

Hi,

I uploaded jre-1.8u65-i586.sfs

Download from

http://www.smokey01.com/gjuhasz/packages/


Tested on Puli with games such as Minecraft.

Have fun!

Thanks gjuhasz, but could you please check the page? 404 error.

It was my fault.

Yesterday, I moved my packages from smokey01.com/gjuhasz/sfs to the below link, which is OK now:

http://www.smokey01.com/gjuhasz/packages/

The folder behind the old link includes a pointer to the new one. I also edited my previous posts to correct the link.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Have fun!
