/usr/local/jdk1.6.0/src.zip - FreeBSD
This is a discussion on /usr/local/jdk1.6.0/src.zip - FreeBSD ; Hi,
After installing JDK 1.6, there's a file "src.zip"
in /usr/local/jdk1.6.0. The file's size is 18 MB.
Is that file required for correct operation of the
JDK, or can it be safely deleted?
Best regards
Oliver

"(In src.zip) Java programming language source files for all classes that

I think that answers the question. ;-)

Yes, it does. Thanks.
Removing it reduces the space requirements by 33%.
