I just realized you might want to use this path:
/Library/Java/Home/lib/fonts
to avoid tying your code to a specific version of Java (i.e. 1.4.2 in
your
example).
The /Library/Java/Home/ symlink should always point to the appropriate
Home
folder.
If you do use a version-specific pathname, you should assemble it
dynamically using one of the Java-version properties. The most reliable
is
probably "java.version", which may contain a "build" number after an
"_",
as in "1.4.2_09". So you'd strip off the "_" and everything after it
before building the pathname.
[Eric Kolotyluk] Already done that. I didn't know about
/Library/Java/Home though.
