Hi, Mikhail, would you please educate me why this helper inlining work depends on mmtk.jar? If only the unboxed classes are used, why can't we write a simple replacement? That's just easy.

Folks, I'm preparing the first patch with VM helpers inlining framework implementation. The Java fast-path helpers use org.vmmagic.unboxed classes (or "magic" classes ) to use address arithmetic in helpers. That is the mmtk.jar is required to build these classes. The problem is that I do not know what is the best place to put mmtk.jar. Should we make it downloadable from some 3rd party page? My vote is -1 here. Let's be careful about what is in the JAR. Could we put it directly into SVN? I'm +1 here. We have to decide only about a folder name. Any thoughts? -- Mikhail Fursov
