If some kind of hack like this is required, I'd rather it not be the VM's job to implement it. Instead, do it in classpath native code. I don't think it's "right" to force all VMs to have such a hack when it's not necessary. For example, leave gnu.classpath non-public or whatever, then add a package-access native method in java.lang.VMFoo that uses native code to violate the normal access restrictions, allowing access to gnu.classpath "remotely". -Archie __________________________________________________________________________ Archie Cobbs * CTO, Awarix * http://www.awarix.com _______________________________________________ Classpath mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/classpath
