I was going to originally use that work at your request, but after reviewing the solaris build environment, I decided that it wouldn't be an effective use of my time to do that kind of stuff since the changes would be tedious and it would distract me from the more core issues such as threading/signaling, weird high speed mutex and event call back code. The linux tree, as is, already fully compiles and I've got the platform specific changes largely mapped out in my head. So the functional engineering role change here is that I'd like for you to instead take my changes to the linux port and then refashion it into a bsd specific build system, which I will use for all development once that's finished. That would be consistent to your current role as a build system specialist in this group and it would remove the technical overlap between us currently in relation to HotSpot. ;-) I'm on a roll here and I don't want to stop the momentum which is understandable. bill To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
