It also seems to provide A LOT faster java compiler... I'm quite interested in this. However, would you be willing to base your work on the either the FreeBSD gcc-devel port, or on the GCC "head" branch snapshot? I am pretty sure major additions like this would not be accepted by Cygnus/GCC in the 2.95.x branch. And I don't look forward to trying to port such stuff to the newer GCC code base, which is where the future is. > Any suggestions on what should be used on FreeBSD instead?

I should have an updated ``gcc-devel'' port working and committed within the week. -- -- David (obrien@NUXI.com) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
