Wait... you haven't switched to Python + git yet?
stop stalking my blog and get back to work. =)
google reader... easy, passive stalking. :P
Couldn't you just point your IDE at the JDK bundle in /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines? Symlinking the src and docs from the system installed one will only cause it to be out of date when they system upgrades again.
There are many ways to skin a cat. This is the one I prefer.
It's rare that I have anything bad to say about Apple, there are thigs that are annoying but much less so than the alternatives. This one is just plain DUMB! I can't believe this kind of hack has to be done. Thanks for figuring it out! I installed the Java package but couldn't figure out whether it even did anything. I hate Apple for this (at least for a couple of hours). Thanks for posting your solution!
