I'm happy to announce one more contribution to Harmony on behalf of Intel. The archive with the contribution is uploaded to the following location:
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HARMONY-39 The contribution includes the following class library packages: 1) java.beans 2) java.math 3) java.util.regex Note that this contribution includes stubs for certain classes from the java.awt and java.applet packages as well to enable compilation of java.beans. The stub classes do not yet include the complete method signatures or their fully-functional implementations. Please be prepared to observe some unit test failures in the beans package because of that. The code is a result of efforts of Intel Middleware Product Division team. One should be able to compile and run this code with the Harmony Execution Environment available at http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/java/jdk/harmony, Harmony Class Libraries and Eclipse compiler. The code included with the contribution is pure Java, we tested it with the Harmony Execution Environment on Windows and Linux. The implementation is done according to the Java 5 API specification, though the Java 5 specific language features such as generics were not utilized. One should be able to run this code with a 1.4+ compatible JRE/VM. The build provided with the contribution doesn't include the documentation target yet until we work out the approach to handling the references to J2SE spec (we haven't yet removed the com.intel.drl.spec_ref tags from the code). We hope that the proposed regex package would allow developing the fully- functional build makefiles for Ant. The detailed documentation regarding the regex framework can be found under the 'doc' directory. The archive contains the README file that explains the things doable with this code. But, should any additional clarifications be required, I'll be happy to provide them. You are welcome to try it out! Thank you, Andrey Chernyshev Intel Middleware Products Division
