Compiling processing with icedtea6 (OpenJDK)

I am posting this here because I cannot login to the bug tracker.

I checked out processing from subversion today and compiled it with icedtea6 (OpenJDK) in Gentoo Linux (amd64). No compilation error and the examples seems to run fine. So far everything[1] seems to be working fine.

I think processing's FAQ/Troubleshooting should be changed to reflect that even though not officially supported processing now may work on icedtea6 (OpenJDK).

[1] except for OPENGL, which fails because I'm running on a 64-bit OS, but that's a separate issue.


Do processing have a test suite apart from the examples Or is there a list of things to do for testing
