Really funny. The gcc manual actually says that when it "explains" the -trigraphs option. That is all the documentation it gives! Argh. I tried to lookup more info on trigraphs but could not find that much. What I could find did not say that ::: was actually a trigraph. Stange. The patch is neccessary and does work for me (gcc 3.0.4 debian prerelease). Does anybody know if it is a real fix or something bogus? Anyway, I added a new file with the patches that I needed as resource/orp-1.0.9.patch and updated the ORP build instructions for using the native Classpath libraries with the latest ORP on <http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/doc/orp.html>. (And I actually tested it with clean installs of both ORP and Classpath.) If someone else could try it out that would be much appreciated. I also updated the README file with new URLs for the VMs that currently use Classpath and added the following text: GNU Classpath has been tested to work out of the box with the latest ORP release. Instructions for building ORP with this GNU Classpath release can be found at <http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/doc/orp.html>. Most JVMs come with their own customized version of GNU Classpath. Please check if there is a customised version available for the JVM you use before trying the bare bones GNU Classpath release. We are working with the JVM creators to keep the differences between the core classes as small as possible. Please tell us if you make GNU Classpath work with a new JVM. We are very close to a realease now. Yeah! Cheers, Mark _______________________________________________ Classpath mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/classpath
