Re: [Rabbit-proxy-users] Installation problem

Hello!

Yes, sourcepath is for jdk/1.2+ it is very useful and nice to have.
Maybe some day I will do something to check if that option is
available so makefile can be more correct.

Without the sourcepath you have to compile the classes in the correct
order or rather try to compile everything until it does not generate
any more errors (3 times for me).

This indicates that your CLASSPATH is not correct. More specifically
you do not have the classes.zip in your CLASSPATH

Yes, that is a _bug_ in rabbit, there are a few errors in
GeneralHeader and a few in Connection, I did change this for the next
release of RabbIT.

Change the "....add (...)" into "....addElement (....)" and the
"...get (...)" into "...elementAt (...)" and everything should
compile under jdk/1.1

Now it does for me.

If you dont want to change thoose lines yourself, I have uploaded:
http://www.khelekore.org/rabbit/RabbIT2-2.0.22.tar.gz
http://www.khelekore.org/rabbit/RabbIT2-2.0.22.zip

untar/unzip the file and you should be able to run with
"java rabbit.proxy.Proxy", and please have CLASSPATH unset or set it
to ".:/usr/lib/jdk1.1/lib/classes.zip" (correct the classes.zip if
you have it in some other place).

These are not the 2.0.22 release, consider them as pre-releases, I
belive that they should work better than 2.0.21 (in a few very rare
cases having to do with http/1.1).
