Currently I'm trying to merge in some 1.3 changes with his work. Looks promising: > ./j2sdk-image/bin/java -version java version "1.4.0-internal" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.0-internal-glewis_13_aug_2002_15_29) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.0-internal-glewis_13_aug_2002_15_29, mixed mode) > ./j2sdk-image/bin/javac HelloWorld.java > ./j2sdk-image/bin/java -classpath . HelloWorld Hello, world. Its actually further along than that demonstrates (Alexey got the JDK bootstrapping itself just the other night :). Its not quite ready for a patchset, but its getting there. The down side is that it appears to take a lot longer to compile than 1.3 (my guess is around double the time). -- Greg Lewis Email : glewis@eyesbeyond.com Eyes Beyond Web : http://www.eyesbeyond.com Information Technology FreeBSD : glewis@FreeBSD.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
