yeah, but ... that only help with classpath's classes. As soon as some third-party jar triggers the miranda bug, you're back to square one, right? I think it would be better to write some docs on how to fix it. Reminds me that I should fix the miranda bug in kaffe, btw... Serialization: I don't think one can get it right without specifying the serial version ids anyway because of naming differences of automatically generated methods in compiler implementations. cheers, dalibor topic __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
