I build HotSpot on my Mac on Solaris over VMWare (partly so I can use the most-excellent dbx). I'm waiting for braver souls to tame the frontier lands of JDK-on-Mac builds, but will move there when it gets more civilized. Meanwhile, I encourage you specifically to be a MOP pioneer, not an OpenJDK pioneer! Yes, method handles cry out for a 2-stage overload API: Resolve once, then call the resulting method handle many times for the same syndrome of types. -- John --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "JVM Languages" group.
