Like many things being offered by SUN, it may very well that the Java Platform Debugging Architecture (JPDA) was never licensed to Blackdown. I would also suspect ur argument would be more meritorious if it wasn't for the fact the all platforms have to be compatable ( as far as JCK is concerned )

Sometime, i think in December 1999, there was suggested, in one of Sun's news blurbs, that you were going to unveil a different JDK licensing model. I am in the hope that thie new model, would allow me to continue porting the JDK1.2 & JDK1.1.x series on to the alpha/linux. As you may be aware, tha

The missing piece in ur analysis is that the blackdown group got a commercial license to do the port. It is a license that sun did not give/grant to me when i did the Java port to the Digital Alpha computers running Linux. Without that license, or pre commitment to grant a license, you are wasting

Re: What are the disadvantages of using jikes instead of javac?

I think this is just passing the buck. Javac should do its 'optimizations' ( whatever they may be ) irrespective of the fact that a JIT might be there ( or any other accellerator/translator ). Nor is there any guarantee that a JIT will optimize anything in its translations. Mo DeJong wrote:

In general what u hear are underrun errors ( where the sound device is not feed fast enough ). second generalization is that the linux/sound is not a real-time system - an active swap can really do ur program, as well as the proper feeding of the device, "in" . Higher priority tasks can also caus

Did u say u herd clicks ? If u did, then i dont think that is an underrun problem. The kernel, on underrun, actually keeps on feeding the device with silence. The problem with that was the the number of bytes processed by the device, can become larger that the numbers of bytes the pgm actually
