I suggest yout ake a look at the jar-file index "spec" of Java, this sounds a lot like that, so it'd be probably a good idea to look at implementing that at the same time. Note that the Sun jar-file index is somewhat broken; it doesn't take into account the "properties API" stuff, or to be exact, for some reason it's looking for the META-INF/services entries through the index, while not including that directory in it... So that's something you need to guard against as well, even though I'm not sure if we should replicate this brokedness because it affects how applications run. -Jukka Santala _______________________________________________ kaffe mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://kaffe.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kaffe
