[lug] java class path for gcc-java

I think my first reply wasn't worth the magnetic medium it was recorded on.

Here's my second stab.

I don't know where these things are on the gnu-java (we use sun's jdk and
ibm's jikes for javac at work), but the files in the sun jdk at the
JAVA_HOME level are the following:

include
include-old
lib
src.jar


more specifically,

include:
jawt.h  jni.h  jvmdi.h  jvmpi.h  linux

jre:
bin      ControlPanel.html  lib      plugin  Welcome.html
CHANGES  COPYRIGHT          LICENSE  README

lib:
dt.jar  htmlconverter.jar  i386  ir.idl  orb.idl  tools.jar


So wherever these things are (I think dt.jar and tools.jar are the
important ones).

Please take this with a grain of salt, I am not a Java developer, I am only
a sysadmin for an entirely java shop.

FWIW,

Hugh
