I think we can assume that by "anything reentrant" Mark meant load modules (or program objects), since that's what LPA and LNKLST contain. Java byte code is just data. But you could, in theory, embed that data into a load module, and create a special Java class loader that would know to look for its data in LPA instead of looking for it in the UNIX file system, and would know how to extract that data from the load module. And then you could put Java byte code into LPA. Sounds like a fun project, but not one I have time for :-) -- Walt ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
