Panagiotis, thanks for your help.
I just need to run eclipse, so I decided to downgrade to jdk14, so I can run
eclipse without problems.

Trying to build the port, I get:

[root@taz jdk14]# make
printf: missing format character
===>  jdk-1.4.2p7_2 is*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/java/jdk14.

I haven't found any answer to this problem in the archives. Does anyone know
how I can solve this?

Thanks in advance.
