Yes. I should have mentioned that. :-) I'm concentrating on getting some build/test environments set up. Hopefully we can get ourselves into a situation where we can build, test and distribute binaries. That should be quite a fun challenge, especially given the number of possible target environments. Firefox+gcjwebplug+Kaffe on Linux/*BSD/Mac/Windows would be a very interesting thing to build. Cheers, - Jim ___ kaffe mailing list kaffe@kaffe.org http://kaffe.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kaffe

[kaffe] Enable kaffe for Firefox
Hi, Anyone know how to enable Kaffe for Firefox? Br Sakur ___ kaffe mailing list kaffe@kaffe.org http://kaffe.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kaffe
Re: [kaffe] Enable kaffe for Firefox
That would be a high security risk, as Kaffe doesn't have a full bytecode verifier and complete sandboxing. Also the version of GNU Classpath inside Kaffe would have to be fully audited, so that no routes to escape the sandboxing would exist in its code. :) On 5/26/06, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, Anyone know how to enable Kaffe for Firefox? Br Sakur -- Rafael Monoman Teixeira --- As I'm currently working a lot with Java and even fixing Java VMs (JamVM/Kaffe) and GNU Classpath code, I think I may partly borrow the title (Javaman) from my friend Bruno Souza and become the MonoNJavaMan.
