OK, this is an interesting twist... I'm running the 2.99 beta, and in addition to a huge number of other advancements, I've discovered that there is a copy of both a 1.4.2 jre, but there is also a version of the Eclipse java compiler. I've only tested it on a couple really simple classes, but it seems to be working!! I'm still interested in following the Blackdown java, but this seems to scratch the immediate itch, and it's even a slightly newer version (1.4.2 vs. 1.4.1).
