java development on distros other than RH


I spend most of my time doing java development using weblogic 7, jboss, tomcat, and eclipse. would there be any issues if i switched to another distribution such as suse? I think most companies, such as bea, say they only support RH.

I have done java development, albeit lightweight, on SCO Unix OpenServer 5, redhat, and Win98. I have noticed that SCO will only run up to java VM 1.3. Because of this, when I use some methods, they wont work. For example, I had to write my own split() because java.lang.String.split() is supported in VM 1.4 but not 1.3. I suspect these are the types of issues you will run into but they should be just inconviences.

I run Eclipse on my SuSE 8.2 System. Never tried to write anything in Java, but I know Eclipse works fine, I use it for some of my C++ stuff.
