From what I understand there is no JIT or Hotspot in Blackdown, correct?
What's the status of this exactly? Can we expect to see one soon?
I haven't had much problem with Blackdown, but it is a bit too slow
without a JIT.
I was going to try IBM Java for Linux, but I'm stuck with Kernel 2.2
Could someone post release notes for this version
to this list or at least point us to a link?
I am particularly interested in the PPC version.
I believe the release notes are inside the package
but I'd rather see what was fixed before I download
the tar.
Thanks,

Blackdown Java 1.3.1-02a for PPC
I'm trying to recompile a program written in Java which
make some native calls written in C.
I'm getting the error:
jni_md.h: No such file or directory
I know that some people have recompiled this program
on Intel boxes, so is this a problem with Blackdown
OK, I think I got this fixed by changing a path in the Makefile.
However, there seem to be a lot of missing fonts when I run the program.
(?)
(I see lots of warnings in the console)

Hi,
I noticed there is an old JIT compiler for PPC by Metroworks.
Will this work with Blackdown 1.3.1 for PPC?
Will it be any faster than the interpreter?
I think I really need a JIT.

No, in fact it looks like the same properties file I was already using.
The exact message is:
Font specified in font.properties not found
[--symbol-medium-r-normal--*-%d-*-*-p-*-adobe-fontspecific]
Font specified in font.properties not found
Thanks for all the help with the Linux font problem.
I finally got it fixed today.
This article helped:

I also had to tweak the font.properties file.

p.s. I'm still dying to use a JIT with Linux PPC.
on the list making it
hard to ask quick questions.
To Drew Lane: Sorry for sending this mail to you first. My mistake.

From what was said here previously, Apple won't share their
code with the Blackdown folks, so a JIT is not in the plans.
This is certainly very dissapointing as Java without a JIT
can be as slow as mollases (it seems to depend on what you're doing).
You could try the Java SDK from IBM, but
