Re: How to build Classpath without Classpath

2008-05-08 Thread Robert Schuster
Hi,
I am maintaining the Java/Classpath stuff in OpenEmbedded and have
implemented a self-hosting toolchain like this:

jikes 1.21 -> classpath 0.93 -> cacao 0.98 or jamvm 1.5.0 -> ecj-initial ->
classpath 0.9x (x >= 5) -> cacao 0.98+hg20071001 (or newer) ->
ecj(-bootstrap)

ecj-initial is just ecj but taught to use classpath 0.93 as its class.
The set of Java classes from ECJ that are really compiled is the same as
found in the Debian package ecj-bootstrap.

ecj-bootstrap is the Java compiler that uses classpath 0.9x and cacao
0.98+hg20071001+. It is called -bootstrap because it only has the basic
'javac' features, no ant integration and whatnot. Again the same classes
as Debian's ecj-bootstrap.

This compiler is used to compile all the Java packages, while
ecj-initial only serves the bootstrapping purposes.

Regards
Robert

SPEC jvm 2008 successes?

2008-05-08 Thread Ian Rogers

Hi,

I was wondering what success people have had running SPEC jvm 2008 [1]. 
My experiences are here [2] and I'd like to get further. If anyone 
succeeds I'd be interested to know.


Thanks,
Ian
