jazzlib in Classpath

2001-09-05 Thread John Leuner

>John Leuner and Jochen Hoenicke should be able to do this when they

I'm ready to import the jazzlib files into classpath's java.util.zip . Are there any 
objections to this?

I have CVS access and can commit the jazzlib files in a day or two.

about RMI

2001-09-05 Thread Takashi Okamoto

I checked gnu/java/rmic/RMIC.java.

I found following code:

 // Compiler comp = Compiler.getInstance();
 // if (verbose) {
 // System.out.println("[Compiling class " + name + "]");
 // }
 // comp.setDestination(destination);
 // boolean result = comp.compile(name);
 // if (result == false) {
 // throw comp.getException();
 // }

So, RMIC can't compile Stab and Skel files currently. 
I have a briefly patch. How about it?

This code works with kopi java compiler (http://www.dms.at/kopi/)
which is distributed under GPL:)

Maybe I should write interface and we should select one of compilers 
(sun,jikes,kjc..etc) like kaffe.

Yes, this is a known problem.  Fixing it is on my to-do list, but that

I'd rather not check this in, since it is dependent on a particular
compiler.

This is what I'm planning to do.  If you want to do it, that would be

I continue not to understand why the Classpath project leaders can't
simply moderate non-member postings, then simply uses mailman's nice
web base interface to sort through legitimate mails and SPAM.

No big magic or complex scripts or complex processes involved; only
a couple of clicks (for both configuration and modaration) through
a simple, self-documented, web-based interface.

Is it really asking too much?  What do others think?

I fixed this and checked it in.  In the byte[] case you have to
subtract `offset' from the length.

Gansha, it would be a lot more appealing to apply actual patches
instead of having to write them myself.  Could you please submit real
patches (made with diff) with ChangeLog entries?  Thanks.

We are running on the GNU mailing list system.  I'm personally shocked
and dismayed at the amount of spam and virus transmissions that run through
this thing. I'd be happy to see non-member postings bounced to a moderator.
Unfortunately, I have nothing to do with this list from an admin
perspective.  Does anybody out there have an idea on how to set this up?

This patch looks good to me.  Eric, what is your paperwork status?  If
you're going to have direct write access soon, then I'd rather you
just check this in.  Otherwise I will do it.

I'm going to use your patch to make a patch for the libgcj String
which does the same thing.  (String is one of the few classes that
will probably never be merged.)

The Classpath list is managed by the "Mailman" software.  According to
the list web page, somebody with email address <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
has this list's "administrative password", which allows you to administrate
the list.  I guess this is a more-less dummy address (a black-hole), as I
have tried before emailing this person and got no reply...

As every mailing-list can get its own admin password, you could ask the FSF
people to change the classpath admin password (if they use a common password
for all their list: bad idea...), then give back the mailing-list administration 
priviledges to Classpath project administrators, as it should be.
(The GNU "mail.gnu.org" system's administrator has full control to revoke
these priviledges.)

Do you have any idea, who in the FSF organization, has decision power on such
matters (other than RMS, hopefully)?

I've replaced the non-ASCII files in Classpath.  They only appeared in

None here.  It seems like a VM that wants to read .zip/.jar files for
the core classes will need to implement some native capability itself
which is tied to a classloader rather than rely on jazzlib, correct?

It all depends on what you call "core classes".  Assuming a VM can somehow
load an initial set of "bottstrap classes" (which obviously includes
jazzlib classes), then it can load the remaining of classes (including
"core" java.*.* classes) out of .jar files using jazzlib.

Aha - I just got the email today that my paperwork cleared FSF.  So, now
it's just a matter of getting my CVS write access set up, and I'll check
this in.

In the meantime, feel free to make the change in libgcj - I didn't apply
for developer access on that project (maybe I should, but not now).

I can track down someone to make the change, assuming there are no FSF policy
problems.  But we need a moderator to sort through non-member postings.
I simply do not have time to do it.  Are you (or someone else) volunteering?

Are you just ignoring my email saying that there has been zippo
response to my requests to obtain the freakin' password so I can do
this ([EMAIL PROTECTED])?  Apparently.  You want to complain,
feel free, but you're not helping anyone.

Aaron, read your email and if you do get some response
somewhere... I'd be grateful.
