Hi Mark,
Hi Enrico,
If you can figure out why jikes hangs, either by adding -verbose to the
Makefile or by stracing or running it under gdb (if available under
cygwin) that would be interesting.
In order to understand why jikes hangs I did the following things:
1. added -verbose to the appropriate makefile
Now, the command line issued by make contains :... jikes
-verbose...
but Jikes hangs without printing anything on the standard output
2. recompiled jikes #defining the macro JIKES_DEBUG in the <config.h>
file, in order to enable some debug messages.
The build completes and I'm sure that JIKES_DEBUG does effect
the program because if I issue "jikes -help" I can see the debug
options
which were not available, with the ordinary build.
Jikes hangs without printing anything on the standard output
I think I should use the GDB debugger which works fine on my Cygwin or the
DDD debugger (which is a GUI based debugger)
I'll do that tomorrow.

The only one left is the Eclipse compiler. When I try:
./configure --with-ecj
the configure script tells me that "ecj is not found"
ECJ is a class, embedded in the following Eclipse plugin:
org.eclipse.jdt.core.compiler

and therefore is not an ordinary application.
Can somebody tell me how to instruct the configure script
to use the ECJ compiler?
On builder.classpath.org we bootstrap the ECJ compiler with GCJ. I am
not 100% sure you can do this with an older gcj (builder uses gcc from
cvs), but if you can try then this is what should work:
cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/eclipse co \
org.eclipse.jdt.core
cd org.eclipse.jdt.core
find compiler batch -name \*.java | xargs gcj \
--main=org.eclipse.jdt.internal.compiler.batch.Main \
-Icompiler -Ibatch -o ecj
Then you have a native ecj executable that can be used to bootstrap
classpath.
Ok, thanks for your suggestion. I'll try that too.
Has anybody ever successfully built GNU/Classpath on Cygwin?
Yes in the past, but clearly none of the core developers are using
cygwin regularly. So it has bitrotten a bit. Sorry and thanks for trying
to get it working.
I need a Windows build of Classpath, because I'm building JC (SableVM),
which in turn,
needs Classpath to successfully build on Windows.
Cheers,
Mark
ciao,
Enrico
