You may have seen this already; if so, apologies. I think this
is great news for Java/Linux users!
Linux is one of the reference platforms for GCC Java support;
see the website for details about which CPUs behave right
today.

Try using "jar". Jarfiles are zipfiles with a strange extension
and an optional layout convention.

I may have missed this ... will this be covering GCJ?
Compiled Java has some nice advantages. Including
more natural and efficient integration with native code,
as well as faster startup and the ability to do some
aggressive ahead-of-time optimizations, and working
better with standard OS tools

If the JVM uses anything other than the standard dlsym()
I think it'd really be asking for trouble ... why would it want
to do that, anyway?

Heh ... the real fun begins when the last name-mangling issues get
resolved, and folk start using DDD with GCJ compiled code! :)
I don't know if it'll work with interpreted code though.

The versions of GCJ worth trying are the one RedHat put
onto the RedHat 7.0 distribution ("GCJ 2.96rh"), and for
the truly bleeding edge user, recent GCC 3.0 snapshots.
The 2.95 versions are significantly out of date, and not
at all recommended. On the other hand, the 3.0 versions
are restabiliz

Not quite the same as "Blackdown Java on Linux", given stuff

It's not JDK ... but I think I remember seeing reports
that GCJ may be working on ARM. Unless you
need Swing, check it out at http://gcc.gnu.org/java/ ...
if it's not running on ARM, a couple good engineers
should be able to make a solid dent in that problem!

It'd be interesting to see a current version of GCJ in those
comparisons. GCJ 2.95.2 is listed in the shudo.net page,
but that's _extremely_ old ... I'd suggest using the 2.96 that
is distributed with RedHat 7.0, as the most current "stable"
version available. (GCC 3.0 will have a more up-to-dat

GCC 3.0 includes a Java compiler, GCJ. It's in code
slush now, soon to branch; "hope to release by the
end of Q1 2001".

I agree with Matt, on the purely selfish reasons. There
are lots of places to ask generic questions, and the main
ones I know of that Linux-specific questions get dealt with
are this one (focussed on Sun's version of Java) and the
java-discuss list hosted for GCJ/GCC users/developers/...

I think the documentation for Sun's "javac" says
that "-O" is a NOP.
In theory (and in practice with some other compilers :-)
there's a fair degree of scope for optimizing intermediate
code. Not just dead code elimination, but reorganizing
basic blocks, eliminating temporaries, and so on. (The

The modules bit doesn't make sense to me; are you referring
to the kernel driver plus the userspace JNI glue to call it?

What's solid is control and bulk communications; periodic transfers aren't
available
at this time, though Linux should support some "interrupt" style transfers.
