Can 64-bit Java applications reside above the Bar? I'd assume they could provided they contain only interpreted code, not executable.
Can 31-bit Java applications reside in LPA? I'd assume they could if LPA doesn't require that modules contain some executable code. The LOAD SVC could find the CSECT address for the interpreter; the saving of sharing frequently used modules could be significant. But, are some installations feeling the storage constraint of growth of LPA, even to the extent of needing to make uncomfortable decisions about what to exclude from LPA? There'd seem to be motivation here for supporting an above-the-bar extension of LPA. Why is the documentation of Java so sparse? Searching "Elements and Features" on Publibz for "java" returns a preponderance of hits in SMP/E manuals; "man jar" in Unix System Services returns "not found". Is the Java doc somehow tied up by my employer? Apparently not entirely, because "man jar" on OS X displays a page as well as on Solaris. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
