Synopsis
JRockit 1.5.0 enhancement update
Type/Severity
Product Enhancement Advisory
Topic
New JRockit 1.5.0 packages are now available.
Description
The following packages comprise BEA's JRockit 1.5.0_03:
java-1.5.0-bea
java-1.5.0-bea-console
java-1.5.0-bea-demo
java-1.5.0-bea-devel
java-1.5.0-bea-jdbc
java-1.5.0-bea-plugin
java-1.5.0-bea-src
The BEA WebLogic JRockit 1.5.0_03 JRE and SDK contain BEA WebLogic
JRockit Virtual Machine 1.5.0_03 and are certified for the Java
5 Platform, Standard Edition, v1.5.0.
The Java 5 Runtime Environment consists of the Java virtual machine, the
Java platform core classes, and supporting files, including a Web browser
plugin for running Java applets. It is the runtime part of the Java 5 SDK,
but without the development tools such as compilers and debuggers.
The Java 5 Software Development Kit (SDK) is a development environment for
building applications, applets, and components that can be deployed on the
Java platform. The Java 5 SDK software includes tools useful for
developing and testing programs written in the Java programming language.
The Java 5 SDK software also includes a JDBC/ODBC bridge for Java
applications that need to communicate with a database.
Users of the JRockit 1.4.2 release may install these JRockit 1.5.0 packages
in parallel and use alternatives to switch between the two environments.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:
rpm -Fvh [filenames]
where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade. Only those
RPMs which are currently installed will be updated. Those RPMs which are
not installed but included in the list will not be updated. Note that you
can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only* contains the
desired RPMs.
Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network. Many
people find this an easier way to apply updates. To use Red Hat Network,
launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:
up2date
This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate
RPMs being upgraded on your system.
