Installing JavaHL 1.6 on CentOS


I'm looking to install the 1.6 version of JavaHL on CentOS, which proves to be more tricky then expected.

Has someone succeed doing so and can point a repo for this?

Thanks in advance.


Solution

  • I resolved that issue on rhel5u5 64 bit, but doing a ckeckout from the latest stable tag and doing a full build of subversion and the javahl binding svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/tags/1.6.11 svn-1-6-11

    ./configure --prefix=/opt/subversion --enable-javahl --with-jdk=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-sun.x86_64
    make 
    make install
    make javahl
    make install-javahl
    

    You will need to get many dependencies from the repositories though.
