The kaffe-pc code has not been merged into the kaffe.org tree yet, and it would be very cool if we had a volunteer to do so. Kaffe has progressed and matured quite a bit since 1.0b3. 1.0b3 came out a few years ago, as far as I know. If you're willing to try to port the latest release to MSDOS, I'd have a few suggestions where to start. You should take a look at the kaffePC sources, as well as the pocketlinux sources in kaffe's CVS. Get a current DJGPP installation, including the shell & utilities, so you can build kaffe on MSDOS. And then you'd probably have to hack a bit in the config/ and kaffe/kaffevm/systems directory to include suport for msdos, and kaffe's threads for msdos. I believe that KaffePC and pocketlinux both have code for that. It would be mostly merging work, I guess. It would be great if you could bring MSDOS support into the kaffe.org tree. You could also try running your installation of kaffe through gdb and seeing if you can spot the bug. Read FAQ/FAQ.debugging if it exists in 1.0b3 sources on more information on how to go about debugging. But in general, you'd be better off trying to profit from the ton of bugfixes that happened in the last few years, and merging the MSDOS port with the current code. best regards, dalibor topic __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
