[vtk-developers] Java build problem on Intel Macs

[David Cole]

Well... if you want to try it out and see what happens, you can just 
remove "-framework JavaEmbedding" from the CMake setting 
JAVA_AWT_LIBRARY and any bits of "JavaEmbedding.framework" paths that 
occur in any JAVA_*_INCLUDE_* CMake settings...

I'm certainly not a Java expert, so I don't really know if you can get 
away without these and still have VTK Java wrapping work... but that's 
the first step if you want to try it out. (And I'm just reading the 
FindJNI.cmake file... so there may be another hoop or two beyond this to 
jump through...)

HTH,
David
