I've added some stuff finally to autogenerate the .h files for
includes.  At the moment we're trying to actually compile Paul and
Jim's gtk peer stuff and because compiling that fails javah fails for
those too and the build fails.  I can either remove trying to build
that stuff or leave it in as some sort of impetutus to fix the compile
errors on the Java side.  I could also add something to mkdep.pl to
ignore gnu.java.awt.gtk.*

I use the following to configure for a build...

/configure --with-jikes --with-javah=/usr/local/java/bin/javah
--with-classlib=/usr/local/java/lib/classes.zip

The Sun classes.zip is just for things we still don't have like
java.awt.Image, etc.

Developers should download and install jikes 1.09+ which seems ok on
i386 GNU/Linux.  My patch to jikes should go in this month.  The
compile with jikes ignores errors trying to compile various classes
since they've never compiled in the first place and I'd like the rest
of the build to continue.  ;)  The patch affects some dependency stuff
which isn't hugely important at the moment.

Oh, and if you try to build with jikes you'll get various errors in
classpath/lib/errors.txt.  glibj.zip has 750 classes for me.

What is Japhar's status with working with Classpath?  I think some
folks are having trouble building Japhar from CVS at the moment,
right?
