Oups..., I completely forget to answer to the mailing list *too*... So, here's what I answered to Tom...
---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Jean-Philippe Deblonde <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: 21 juil. 2005 19:21 Subject: Re: Using GNU Classpath while changing his hierarchy To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In fact, it's a lot more than a simple refactoring, because I need, by example, to rewrite the String.java to use an array of bytes (coded with UTF-8) instead of an array of char, to save some space for the smartcards... It's only one of the substitutions I need to do, and I need to do them automatically, since the developpers getting hands on the whole thing will just have to download the new version of the Classpath archive, and run a script to merge it with the rest of the project 21 Jul 2005 10:22:30 -0600, Tom Tromey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > >>>>> ">" == Jean-Philippe Deblonde <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > > >> The GNU Classpath project evolves while I'm doing this.
