Hi,
I am working on adding support for the Java Virtual Machine Debug
Interface to Kaffe. If there are others working on this, please help
me coordinate with them. Right now I've got JVMDI_EVENT_VM_INIT and
JVMDI_EVENT_VM_DEATH events working and am in the midst of getting
JVMDI_EVENT_SINGLE_
Hi Peter,
Thanks for the welcome note. I hope I can offer something really good
to everyone, I am certainly going to give it my all. I worked on
another VM for about four years while at Lotus Development. It ran a
VB clone called LotusScript. It was an interesting project and
hopefully some
Sometimes I feel I would like to compare Sun's Java implementation
against Kaffe. Would doing so prohibit me from contributing to
Kaffe's development in any way? I'd guess that I shouldn't be looking
at their source code (ie don't sign the SCSL ;-) It must be o.k. to
read their specs and imple
Hi Tim,
Thanks for the reply. O.k. I will avoid looking at any code from Sun
unless it's a header file and I absolutly have to look at it. So
far it seems like I won't have to look at Sun's jvmdi.h , but I can't be
certain yet. I will probably download the binary stuff to play with
and if it

This option will be even better soon. Once kaffe has JPDA support
I'd like to get some input on the following problem.
To obtain a JVMDI interface pointer the JVMDI spec says a JVMDI client
should invoke the Java 2 invokation interface function named "GetEnv".
I've only now realized that Kaffe doesn't do Java 2. The JVMDI spec
gives this example:
JVMDI_Inte

I was unclear. I really mean I just need "GetE

Great! I will do that soon.
This is probably something really stupid but I'm flapping trying to
figure it out. I've writen a unit test for the addition of GetEnv to
the invokation interface. When I run it I get:

Couldn't find or load essential class `java/

AH HA! I was right! It *was* something really stupid ;-) Anyway, I
just got my unit test to run successfully. Now I just need to hook up

I'm trying to figure out the right way to implement the interface for
JVMDI, but I'm confused about the goals and benefits of interface
pointers as given in the JNI spec and the examples given in the JVMDI
spec and on other random web sites. The JVMDI spec has a "draft
quality" feel compared wi

But JavaVM is a singleton as well and does have a 'this' pointer. I
guess maybe it's not really necessary in JavaVM then either, but was
included anyway?

Hi,
Something like a year and half ago I was pretty actively trying to get
JVMDI into Kaffe. Then I took a job with a startup. I haven't had a
moment to work on JVMDI since (or to be with my family, etc...).
I do have some work from this effort that I can contribute. I have
a pretty much co
