Fwd: Re: kaffe as shell
Hi folks Someone found this in the PocketLinux archive and asked me if I had gotten any answers. Since I haven't, I thought I'd post it here. Does anyone know how to build kaffe as a shell. From: °ê½÷ [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: kaffe as shell Date: Tue, 9 Apr 2002 01:31:59 +0800 Hello I am a college student I found the following essay that you posted two years ago But it seems that no one has answered your question I have the same question with you. So i write this letter, asking you for the answer if you have already figured it out! thanks!!! = Hello all While searching the PocketLinux archives, I found that: [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote the following on: Fri Sep 01 18:56:13 2000 It's easy to build kaffe so that it acts as a shell, and automatically launches some application - in that case, it could be installed instead of a shell.

Re: JRE file layout for 1.0.7?
Jim I'm all for it. That way, I can have Sun's JDK coresident with Kaffe. It may sound like anathema, but my bosses kinda prefer it that way ;-) Mark From: Jim Pick [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: JRE file layout for 1.0.7? Date: Sat, 30 Mar 2002 09:14:28 -0800 Hi, I want to minimize the number of changes for 1.0.7, in order to minimize the amount of surprises and I don't want to introduce new instabilities. But I would like to change the way the the files are installed when doing make install. Instead of installing it by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, /usr/local/include, etc., I'd like to have the default install put everything in /usr/local/kaffe, in a JRE-style layout. That way, people could just set JAVA_HOME to point there, and use it instead of a regular JDK or JRE. Plus I've always disliked how the kaffe install places those java and javac wrappers in /usr/local/bin. Also, I've been bit a few times by kaffe versions I've been working on accidentally dynamically loading the kaffe.org libs installed in /usr/local/lib instead of the libs I intended. Is anybody opposed to this? It is breaking with tradition somewhat, and it's for the upcoming release, so I figured it would be best to ask. It'll also impact the Debian and RPM packages.

Re: Planning for next release (1.0.7)
Hello all From: Jim Pick [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Planning for next release (1.0.7) Date: Thu, 21 Mar 2002 07:04:32 -0800 ...snip... Here's how I'm thinking of doing it: 1) Solicit feedback on what should be in the release 2) If there isn't anything major that needs to be done, we'll tag a release candidate for testing in CVS, next week 3) The people on the mailing list will test it for a week (from out of CVS) What would the testing involve? I'd be happy to help if I can. Finally, when we decide to do this release, I think we should dedicate it to the memory of Edouard Parmelan. For those that don't know, he was one of the most active Kaffe developers, a member of the core team, and one of the driving forces behind the project. He died tragically in a motorcycle accident last year, leaving behind a wife and kids. This sounds like a fine idea. I'm all for it. I think the releasing versioning proposals are good. More importantly, I'd like to see the versioning method documented on the website and descriptions of the releases placed in CVS.

problems with kaffe on mips
Hello everyone
I installed the binaries from
www.kaffe.org/ftp/pub/kaffe/binaries/linux/kaffe-1.0.5-6.mips.rpm on my
pda.
The kerenl is:
# uname -a
Linux (none) 2.4.0-test1-ac22 #12 Thu Oct 4 15:59:00 PDT 2001 mips unknown
I took out the stuff in /usr/bin/kaffe that busybox doesn't support (sed and
a few others) and added some debugging info to make sure I didn't screw up
the CLASSPATH et al.
I'm trying to execute /usr/share/kaffe/Test.class which was compiled
with jikes v1.12 on a i586 running RedHat 7.0 kernel 2.2.16-22
# ls /usr/share/kaffe
comm.jar
kjc.jar
Klasses.jar
microsoft.jar
pjava.jar
rmi.jar
servlet.jar
tools.jar
Test.class
# pwd
/
# kaffe Test
KAFFEHOME =/usr
building classpath
adding .
adding /usr/share/kaffe/Klasses.jar
adding /usr/share/kaffe/comm.jar
adding /usr/share/kaffe/pjava.jar
adding /usr/share/kaffe/servlet.jar
adding /usr/share/kaffe/tools.jar
adding /usr/share/kaffe/microsoft.jar
adding /usr/share/kaffe/kjc.jar
adding /usr/share/kaffe/rmi.jar
KAFFELIBRARYPATH = /usr/lib:/usr/lib/kaffe
LD_LIBRARY_PATH = /lib:/usr/lib:/usr/lib/kaffe
PATH = /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/lib
/usr/lib/kaffe/bin/Kaffe Test
Couldn't find or load essential class `java/lang/Object'
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError java/lang/Object
I unzip -l Klasses.jar and see the Object.class is present. When I run
kaffe Test on the i586 with the jar's that go on the pda, I get the correct
output. I've attached Test.java just in case anyone wants to take a look.
After ruling out the simple stuff, I think the problem might be caused by a
library that can't read the jar files. Is that even a possibility?
Which library handles reading .jar files? Is it libz or libzip? Does
anyone know which version is the correct one for mipsel?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Mark
