Remote javac/javah compiler?

1999-02-12 Thread Rob Schoening
Hi- Over on the BeOS porting project we're trying to devise a way to build the JDK without a java runtime to run javac or javah. While we can use jikes to replace javac, javah is a bit more difficult. My current idea is replace the javah classloader so that it can load the classes over the

Advice on port?

1999-01-30 Thread Rob Schoening
Hi- Does anyone have any suggestions for porting JDK 1.2 to a new platform that does not have an existing JDK for the bootstrap process? Since I can't use javah or javac, I'll have to cross compile the class files and native stub/headers on another platform. If anyone has done this and migh
