48 <para>The <application>JDK</application> package contains
49 Sun's <application>Java</application> development environment. This is
50 useful for developing <application>Java</application> programs and provides
51 the runtime environment necessary to run <application>Java</application>
52 programs. It also includes a plug-in for browsers so that they can be
53 <application>Java</application> aware.</para>
54
55 <!-- Previously, the plugin included
56 in the <application>JDK</application> binary package was unusable on LFS
57 owing to incompatibilities with <application>GCC</application>-3 compiled
58 browsers. This is not the case anymore.</para>
59
60 <para>In order to use the source code and patches, you must read and agree
61 to the Sun <ulink url="http://www.java.net/jrl.csp"> Java Research
62 License</ulink> or optionally, the Sun <ulink
63 url="http://java.net/jiul.csp">Java Internal Use License</ulink>. In
64 addition, the source code is not allowed to be downloaded to some
65 countries, so for users in those countries, the binary is the only
66 option.</para> -->
67
68 <para>The <application>JDK</application> comes in two flavors, a
69 precompiled binary and a source package. You will first need to download
70 and install the binary version of the <application>JDK</application>
71 (you'll need to click and agree to the <quote>Sun Microsystems, Inc.
72 Binary Code License Agreement</quote>). To build from the source, you will
73 also need to download the additional files and patches to complete the
74 source build as detailed below. Note that in some countries you cannot
75 download the source code.</para>

205 <para>The <command>./jdk-mod.bin</command>
206 command below unpacks the distribution into a

208 You will be required to view, and then accept (by entering a
209 <keycap>y</keycap> keypress), a license agreement before any files are
210 unpacked. If you are scripting (automating) the build, you'll need to
211 account for this. There is information about automating build commands
212 in the <xref linkend="automating-builds"/> section of Chapter 2. Towards
213 the end of this section, specific information for automating this type of
214 installation is discussed.</para>

216
217 <para>Normally in BLFS, the files are unpacked into a subdirectory
