[Fwd: How to participate to your project...]
--- Begin Message --- Hi, Your project draw my attention out. I would like to be part of it. I've checked some tasks you needed people to be working on, but it seemed they may be out of date (some should have been finished more than a year ago as it is written on the board). So I was wondering if could try myself on it. Here is a short overview of what I can do : I'm a french developper : - so I can translate docs or write some in english for you (it should be a good start to my mlnd so that I could better discover some parts of the project) - then I can write some java tests or pieces of packages I'll be waitin for informations Bye Hugo ___ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ --- End Message --- signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ Classpath mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/classpath

The point of running configure is to tailor the build to your actual environment. But if you want to try this, go ahead... You can use Eclipse to hack Classpath. With this approach you don't need any build environment outside of Eclipse. Of course, then you also can't easily build the native libraries or test.

I'm sure somewhere on the FSF site there is an explanation of the reasons for this. I'm sure the FSF can get paperwork to Mongolia or anywhere else, but you'd have to contact the assignment clerk to be sure.

Kissme should only be limited by Classpath and the GTK peers when it comes to running graphical apps. I don't know if there any graphical applications that can be said to run perfectly on Classpath.

I is an interface. :)

What is missing is a guide or download that makes it possible for JAVA
programmers to start hacking. As soon as gcc, automake and autoconf come
into play you loose 75% of your potential hackers-market for any Java
project.
A snapshot with generated makefiles, and an included libtool would be a
very good start.

An additional item for the coding style should be a note that if you
implement equals() then you should also implement hashCode();
What I also miss is the ordering inside a class; what I see most of the
java community do is to put static fields first, then normal fields, then
constructors, then private/protected constructors, then public get/set
style methods, then normal public methods, then private methods, then all
static methods, then non-static inner classes, then static inner classes.
This is what the industry uses; I don't really care what the standard is in
GNU classpath, but I surely would like to see a coding convention.

What to do in this case: automake (GNU automake) 1.6.3 automake: minimum version required: 1.7.0 aclocal (GNU automake) 1.6.3 aclocal: minimum version required: 1.7.0 I ask because 'autogen.sh' completed without (further) errors.
