gconf needs ORBit?!

Hello all, another build surprise, and another stupid question. Sorry. Obviously, classpath cvs now depends on gconf, which depends on something called ORBit that I have never heard of, and that I don't have. Well, building with --disable-gconf-peer now. (Another undocumented switch, but I am

Re: gconf needs ORBit?!

Hello Roman, thanks for your quick reply. Orbit is usually installed as part of Gnome. Of which gconf is the configuration management. So if you have gconf you usually also have Gnome and with it you'll have Orbit. OK. So far, I only have those parts of gnome required to building

Re: Build failure: mozilla-plugin

Hello Tom, Try --disable-plugin. oops... ok, works. Thanks. Guess I should have grep'ed for plugin instead of mozilla in ChangeLog*. Perhaps a better error message is in order? - Norman

Re: ANN: image viewer

Hello Christian, I tested it with CACAO and it works, but it's not blazingly fast :-) Thanks. I had some hope that a JIT compiler would help a bit, but apparently not... still, at least on my system, image loading under JDK 1.5.0 is almost twice as fast as JDK 1.4.2, and JDK 1.6 beta is a

ANN: image viewer

Hello all, a while ago Mark persuaded me to re-release my simple image viewer application as open source, especially as several parts of it already accompanied my Swing-related bug reports... I finally found the time to clean-up the sources a bit, and I also added thumbnails support. This is

Hello Mark, hello David: Mark Wielaard wrote: All in all not too bad. I'll try and analyze (and hopefully fix the few non-free-swing regressions). I do worry a bit about the fact that JList doesn't seem to scroll anymore (see my previous email about the FreeSwingTestApps). There has been a

classpath+mauve

Hello David and Audrius, first of all, thanks for your answers to my mauve-setup question(s). I tried the MakeTestClassList program, which seems to work fine. However, after spending another few hours trying to get the whole testsuite running, my worst fears are confirmed... To summarize: *

Re: classpath+mauve

Not true. I just use the batch_run utility to run them all. I know that Mark uses this too. When I first tried the script, every test would FAIL... looking at it again I see this is simply due to the hard-coded path to glibj.zip. After changing the path, the script works. Still, the script

classpath+jamvm+mauve Howto?

Hello all, [I recently checked out Mauve CVS with the good intention of first running the testsuite, learning from the existing testcases, and then converting my own bug-report testcases into some nice Mauve regression tests.] Unfortunately, running Mauve under classpath+jamvm is less fun than I

Swing (more screenshots)

Hello all, a while ago I made myself some enemies complaining about the AWT/Swing support in gcj (http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/java/2005-05/msg00052.html). Back then, I was really frustrated about obscure compiler bugs in gcj being fixed within minutes, while even small test programs like many of the

Qt-peers and AC_PROG_CXX

A dumb question about the classpath build infrastructure: Since the recent Qt-peers checkins, trying to build classpath CVS from scratch fails on my system (basically still a SuSE 8.2 with lots of updates): ... native/jni/qt-peer/Makefile.am: C++ source seen but `CXX' is undefined
