I have written various Java-.class-file-related functions and programs.
The functions include code for scanning .class files and classes.zip.

The programs are:

jcf-dump:  Dis-assemble a .class file.
	This is mostly done.  The main thing missing is printing out
	debug-information (line number and variable names and type).

gjavah:  Write out header files from a .class file.
	This should be useable.  See the TODO list at the end of gjavah.c.

cc1java:  Compile a .class file to assembler, using gcc.
	This is only a skeleton which does very little so far.

jinterp is a non-working skeleton of a Java byte-code interpreter.

javaop.def is a table of Java opcodes in a format that can be pre-processed
in various useful ways.  It is used by both jcf-dump and jinterp, and
also will be used by cc1java.

The code is available from ftp.cygnus.com in pub/bothner/gjava.tar.gz.
