As Xiao Feng mentions, memset() is filled with a bunch of complications. We do not want to dive into writing yet another highly optimized memset() library. There are plenty of them on the shelf. I would like to set memset() aside and stay focused on showing perfomance data on inlined alloc() at this time.
AFAIU, Mikhail also works on something like fast-JNI - a way to call native function from managed code. To do this, we need some kind of representation of native function in java, a mapping of native call into java bytecode. It looks the class org.apache.harmony.vmhelper.native.Utils was created for this purpose. The memset is just a function we can start with if we really want the ability to call native functions from java. I would like to have this functionality, but if the implementation needs some resources it can be postponed until after the basic helper inlining functionality is ready. -- Ivan --------------------------------------------------------------------- Terms of use : http://incubator.apache.org/harmony/mailing.html To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
