[Kaffe] An article that mentions Kaffe
Hi all. I thought folks on the Kaffe list might like to check out an article I co-authored. It is about using Tcl and Java together. And yes, it mentions Kaffe in on page 2. http://www.sunworld.com/sunworldonline/swol-11-1999/swol-11-jacl.html later Mo DeJong

I have some test cases that reproduce this error but I have not had time to track the bug down. If ZipInputStream is fixed the jar util will work.

It can create JAR files OK but seems to have trouble reading them. -Archie ___ Archie Cobbs * Whistle Communications, Inc. * http://www.whistle.com
