I have 2 questions:
1- Why is the "-module" option explicitly provided in the lib*_la_LDFLAGS = xxx line of */Makefile.am ?
2- Currently, classpath uses "libtool" kind of versioning for its JNI libraries, yet, I do not understand why. I see no reason for any C application to dynamically link with any of these *.so files.
See: $ info "(libtool)Libtool versioning"
This kind of versioning is, IMHO inappropriate here. I would instead use "Release" versioning, as described in:
$ info "(libtool)Release number"
I would also use this same scheme for the released libclasspath.jar file containing .class files, i.e.:
"make install" creates: libclasspath-0.08+cvs.jar it also creates a soft link: libclasspath.jar -> libclasspath-0.08+cvs.jar
What do people think?
