Am I right that the jtreg tests run in the build environment and require gnu make? If so, they can't replace the JCK for those of us who cross-compile to a target system which doesn't support gnu make or an appropriate unix-style shell.

However, IIRC, the JCK itself still isn't available to non-licensees, and we have a significant number of tests which are non-free (they're owned by someone else and we can't give them away), that we haven't had time to audit them for free-ness, or are very licensee-specific (and contain confidential info). The first and second categories obviously are never going to be made publicly available. The second category is slowly getting smaller, as people eventually look at the stuff and move it over into the free sections, but honestly, it's a very low priority. Frankly, we're still trying to get around to doing a full test audit to see if we actually need to even run everything we're doing right now (and, if we should start adding some other stuff for better coverage). Other than the full JCK suite, what is in the "test" directories should suffice for the vast majority of folks - they're fairly comprehensive, and cover a lot of ground. If they're not good enough, well, might I direct you over here to the licensee-section of the company.... -- Erik Trimble Java System Support Mailstop: usca22-123 Phone: x17195 Santa Clara, CA Timezone: US/Pacific (GMT-0800)
