Roberto, thank you so much for taking interest in my issue!

Indeed I meant that there was no .deb containing the java interface in the standard ubuntu mirrors, they only have the C/C++ interfaces.

however, I tried to build from ppl-0.11.2 sources on my system (ubuntu 11.04 using the following command

./configure --libdir=/usr/local/lib64 --with-java=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun --enable-interfaces=java; make

the make exits error as follows:

*********** /usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.5.2/libstdc++.a(ctype.o): relocation R_X86_64_32S against `vtable for std::ctype<wchar_t>' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.5.2/libstdc++.a: could not read symbols: Bad value collect2: ld returned 1 exit status ************

To try to overcome the "can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC" error, I tried to build using this command

./configure --libdir=/usr/local/lib64 --with-java=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun --enable-interfaces=java --with-pic=yes ; make

Attached is the full build log.

Best regards,

/Rémi

this email to let you know we're missing the ppl-java interface under ubuntu 11.04 (and previous releases as well)!

Hi Rémi,

I configured PPL 0.11.2 with the command

./configure --libdir=/usr/local/lib64 --with-java=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk --enable-interfaces=java

on an x86_64 Ubuntu 11.04 system. The Java interface built correctly and passed make check.

So I guess you mean that Ubuntu 11.04 (and previous Ubuntu releases) do not provide a package for the Java interface, right? This is something you should report to the Ubuntu/Debian maintainers. If you decide to contact them, please feel free to CC us and to tell them that, in case they agree to package the Java interface, we will provide assistance. All the best,

Roberto
