[SOLVED] Jacarta EE on slack 14.2

sbabaro1 · 08-26-2020, 08:12 AM

Hi all,
Someone have installed Jakarta EE 8 SDK on Slackware 14.2?
I would like to know if I can use the slackbuild for java, modifying it

Any help appreciate

Have you downloaded and installed both the JDK and GlassFish Server?
You will need both the JDK and the GlassFish Server for Java EE/Jakarta EE.
https://slackbuilds.org/repository/1...velopment/jdk/
https://www.oracle.com/java/technolo...downloads.html
https://www.oracle.com/java/technolo...downloads.html
https://projects.eclipse.org/project...fish/downloads
GlassFish Server 5.0.1 and 5.1.0 seems to be functionally identical apart from branding/licensing.
The Java EE 8 SDK (GlassFish 5.0.1) from Oracle does include samples and documentation that seems to be missing from the Eclipse Jakarta EE 8 SDK (GlassFish 5.1.0).

I'm digging a little, and I realized that Jakarta8 is exactly as Java8, so using the same Slackbuild is correct

P.S.
Is correct using JDK 8, or should be JDK14?
Thanks

I have only tried the GlassFish Server version 5.0.1 Java/Jakarta EE 8 implementation using JDK 8u261. (It requires JDK 8u191 or later, it will crash with JDK 14.) Jakarta EE 9 will require JDK 11 but that hasn't been finalized yet (Eclipse GlassFish Server version 6 is still in beta as far as I know).
