As I understand this, sizers is to X11 Java code what the UnixConstants program is to the filesystem code. It has to determine various sizes of native data structures used by X11 so that those values can be handled correctly in the Java code (storing pointer and offsets in Java code to pass ot native). Unlike the UnixConstants these values only seem to differ between 32-bit and 64-bit, not across different OS
To me it sounds like two checked in files, sizes-32.data and sizes-64.data, or whatever the names should be. And perhaps a script to re-generate those if the need should ever arise. But that need not be run as part of the build process.
Anyone against such a solution? /Magnus
