I'm not sure if I will ever use this much, but I will try it out. I
recall that Jbuilder is one IDE that works with Swarm 2. I see on the
Borland page they require you to have the Blackdown JDK for linux. Kaffe
won't do.

I'm right now recompiling RPMS with the Swarm snapshot dated Sept.
29,1999.  These RPMS are for i686 RedHat Linux 6.0 platforms and you can
choose to grab the rpms for either kaffe or the Blackdown JDK.  These
are not the official Swarm RPMs that are now being done by Alex
Lancaster at SFI. Rather, these are ones I build to use in my own
systems and I'm putting them up on the net as a convenience.  It is all
explained here:

If you look in the i686 directory you should soon see 2 jdk rpms and 2
kaffe rpms:

swarm-with-hdf5-kaffe-2.0.1.990929-1.rh6.kaffe.i686.rpm

Note the swarm version is 2.0.1.990929 and the rpm release is either
1.rh6.jdk or 1.rh6.kaffe.  The base package is called swarm-with-hdf5
and to get the java addon you have to install the relevant
swarm-with-hdf5-jdk or swarm-with-hdf5-kaffe.

If they don't work or I've not made them readable or committed any of
the other goofs, email me.

I'll build for i586 tomorrow.
