There should not be any problem with SableVM as long as the library is
available for the underlying OS.

No problem with Debian. But maybe  with other JDK/ JRE. What does kaffe,
sablevm, jikes, gcj and so think about this?
An optional dependency on an external library is not a problem for kaffe.

Preferably, the external library should be available on seral platforms, 
since kaffe is trying to be the 'netbsd of virtual machines' and run 
almost everywhere. But it's not a 'must', for non-essential (i.e. not 
used in the bootstrap process) libraries.

In the best case, there would be a pure java implementation as a 
fallback for those systems without libxml2. But I guess, that's up to 
developers on those platforms to implement, which don't have a libxml2 
port yet.

cheers,

No problem with Debian. But maybe  with other JDK/ JRE. What does kaffe,
sablevm, jikes, gcj and so think about this?

Err.. what about our libxslt thing? It's in the classpathx repository.

What I had planned to do was make a libxml2 jaxp provider for SAX and
DOM. They would fit in very nicely with a libxslt based TRAX.


I will get round to the build setup soon. Are you available to test
builds?

That's what libxmlj does. It's already used for the gjdoc tool.

Not "out" exactly. But there will be a choice.

As far as I can see libxml2 will be the standard XML library for the
GNU system. XML is so important that it should be standard on the OS
so I see no reason for Java not to work through that.

Would Debian have a problem with this? It's just a dependancy on the
package isn't it? Most people will already have libxml2 I suspect.

It's not full java :( but well,  if it runs well, no problem. I think we
have to integrate the full jaxp API (so WITH transformations).

Do I understand  that Aelfred and gnu.xml.dom will be  out? And you plan
to make bindings with libxml2? 

Well, I'd  like to have come  comments about that (if  I understood this
right?).

Maybe next week. List or private, no problem.

Ahh, that's good.  Should we import that for the release?

There are  very few  classes that  have been changed  but the  japi test
will, I think, return a 99.99% conformance ;)
