JDK for Alpha?

[Adrian Zaugg]

Did anyone succeed in using Compaq's jdk? I tried several times to run
Tomcat or JBoss on it, and it never worked for me.

You can find the archives here:

Read the FAQ about the empty libcpml:
http://ente.limmat.ch/ftp/pub/alpha/java/cpml.html#EmptySharedLib

There are some issues with it. See:

I would be intrested wether you got it to work.
