soprano @2.9.4_0: configure cannot find Java headers

[rv17070093@…]

I sent this message, before I found this "ticket form" to this email address: kde-imaging@…

It was not easy for this 74 yr old to start the installation of digiKam into my MacBook Pro. Somehow I managed to start the process when suddenly it stopped. This is the message the installer displayed:

To report a bug, follow the instructions in the guide:
    http://guide.macports.org/#project.tickets
Error: Processing of port digikam failed

I gather the system is complaining Xcode installation is incomplete - I am able to open XCode and it appears it is working OK.

The trouble is perhaps related to the port; I am not sure what I did when I followed that part of the instructions, the terminal was writing lines regarding or about port 1 - I would appreciate more help with that issue.

I don't know what I need to do with the missing java headers.

Could some one please tell me what is it I need to do to overcome these issues.

Thank you for any help on this matter,

Hm. I don’t think Apple provides Java headers anymore, so you’ll have to install the ​Oracle JDK yourself. I don’t know which version, though.

Issue is resolved -after receiving this comment:

Oracle's website provided all the tools I needed to help me resolve this issue.

Good to hear.
