Well, it's nit-picking, but... http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/status.html#java.awt : "Most 1.1 classes have been written and a few 1.2 classes have been implemented. There is a mostly working GTK+ peer implementation. The AWT classes don't work out of the box at the moment. Work is currently underway to merge the libgcj and Classpath classes and get the peers working with gcj. See the mailinglist archives for progress." I agree they have the groundwork laid, though the bulk of the work in Java implementatiosn tends to be testing & ensuring it works the same as the existing implementations, because the API JavaDoc makes for a real poor spec in general. Luckily Kaffe has already done most of this, and the outcome with AWT programs is very close to that of 1.1. It even replicates the same incompatibilities to newer API ;) By the way, Java2D is 1.2 classes, ofcourse. -Jukka Santala _______________________________________________ kaffe mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://kaffe.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kaffe
