I'm seeking suggestions or ideas from individuals about how they would like to be able to build Classpath. I guess two cases exist, building from CVS and building from a release. I'll start the discussion with my suggestions but I'm hoping for others and some concensus at the end.
Like other GNU projects, I would like to continue to use the automake/autoconf system for driving the compilation of Classpath. For releases I'd like to continue to distribute compiled .class files and generated JNI headers. I want CVS builds to generate JNI headers and .class files relying only on free software. There exists a need within our community to generate .class files without compiling native libraries and I'd like that to be easier... it seems to me that to be successful this must be faster than 'jikes -d /tmp `find java gnu vm/reference -regex ".*\.java$"` or some working equivalent. Additions? Contrary notions? Devil's advocate?
