Question about VMRuntime

2004-11-14 Thread Rajesh Jayaprakash
Hi guys, I am implementing a VM of my own (http://www.geocities.com/shikan_taza/vajra.html) and have a question regarding the VMRuntime class: This class is available in glibj.zip; does this mean that I do not have to implement this class? But I couldn't locate any .so file containing the native

Texual IPv6 address

2004-11-14 Thread Mattias Rehnberg
Hello, The java.net.Inet6Address class seems to produce invalid textual representations in some cases. In the example below, the output is IPv6:1010:2020::1 instead of IPv6:1010:0:0:0:0:2020:0:1 (or 1010::2020:0:1) that one would expect. I've included a patch that deactivates the
