So that refactoring of type checks is now in openjdk: http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk7/hotspot-comp-gate/hotspot/rev/c517646eef23 This will simplify experimentation with type checking. There's really just one slow path now, and it's easy to find all the fast paths. -- John _______________________________________________ mlvm-dev mailing list mlvm-dev@openjdk.java.net http://mail.openjdk.java.net/mailman/listinfo/mlvm-dev
