Jini has a small but loyal user base in financial services.
Looks like River is building on J9, real time java and IIOP seems to be
working too.
I'm not expecting many tests to pass at this stage, since many
permissions will be different, at least it's all compilling now.
Cheers,
Peter.

Wow Peter, that sounds great! I imagine that a significant percentage
of the (rather small) River user base might operate in environments
requiring some of these other Java VMs with particular qualities
around real-time processing, etc.

I've been able to modify Phoenix to use reflection at runtime to call
Sun private implementations, meaning that Phoenix is strictly a Sun
JVM only component, but would no longer prevent compilling and
testing on other architectures.
There is one test that,
com.sun.jini.test.impl.reggie.MultiHomedClientTest that uses the
following internal sun API:
sun.net.spi.nameservice.NameService;
sun.net.spi.nameservice.NameServiceDescriptor;
If I was to change this test and associated classes to .txt
extensions, we could run these manually on Sun's JVM, while allowing
River to build on other architectures.

Peter.
