Re: [gentoo-java] Application server for JEE

[David Herron <David.Herron@Sun.COM>]

Hi Daniel,

For me this raises a possibility we've been concerned with regarding  
the DLJ release that y'all are using on Gentoo.  Namely at Sun we are  
not testing on Gentoo, we test on Redhat or Suse etc (there's a list  
somewhere).  Because we, at Sun, don't test on Gentoo some on the  
team were (and are) worried that some niggling incompatibility at the  
Linux level might cause a behavior difference in Java.

Obviously Java creates platform independence by abstracting the  
operating system, making for a dependency between Java and the OS.

Not that I know that's the case here.  I just wanted to throw this  
out as a possibility.

e.g. have you made sure you're using the same versions of the JDK, of  
Netbeans, and of Glassfish, and that you're seeing different behavior  
and the only difference is that it's Gentoo in one case and Windows  
in another?  And what happens if you run this combination on one of  
the Linux's that are on Sun's supported platform list?
