Hi I'm porting a jvm/jit for a university project to the gnu classpath, since it is nearly impossible to support the sun jre, if you can't sign the sun community license, and therefor don't have the sun-namespaces sources.
I have done a quick hack for testing purposes, but how would I cleanly integrate the classpath? My question is, how other jvm developers cope with the the VM*.c files ? Do they have to be in the classpath hierarchy, or can I somehow create a static classpath lib and than link that one against my own, which contains the VM specific implementations ? Off-topic: By the way, we would like to support jdk 1.2 class files (major 45, minor 3). I tried to compile the classpath with jikes -source 1.2 -target 1.2, but it looks like jikes 1.18 doesn't really work with that. Did anybody try that ? Is there another usable compiler for jre 1.2 compatible class files ? With jikes I get wrong [Field|Method|InterfaceMethod]Ref infos structures for many classes, they point into the constant pool to array constants instead of object constants. According to my knowledge that's wrong. Could it be a problem of how the classpath is compiled ? I'm using the 0.06 tarball Thanks in advance for any information/help Kind regards Joseph Wenninger _______________________________________________ Classpath mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/classpath
