Hello All, I'm trying to compile and run kaffe-1.1.5 on an Atmel ARM9 and Linux-2.4.26. I'm using gcc-2.95.3. Everything cross-compiles happily, but when I try to run a simple helloworld application, the enviroment crashes with the error *java/lang/NullPointerException*. The error is different for jit or intrp. I found similar posts on the mailing list, but compiling the whole with libffi didn't help nor I'm i on a XScale either.
I invoked configure with: $ ../kaffe-1.1.5/configure --target=arm --host=arm-linux --build=i386-linux -- disable-xprofiling --disable-alsotest --disable-esdtest --disable-sound --without-profiling --without-stats --disable-static --prefix=/develop/portux/56597/kaffe-arm-install --exec-prefix=/develop/portux/56597/kaffe-arm-install --without-alsa --without-classpath-gtk-awt --without-x --without-esd --with-staticvm=no --with-staticbin=no --enable-pure-java-math --with-engine=intrp --with-includes=/usr/arm-linux/include --with-libraries=/usr/arm-linux/lib --with-libffi When I run java -fullversion, which works fine I get: Engine: Just-in-time Version: 1.1.5 Java Version: 1.1 Configuration/Compilation options: Compile date : Fri Jun 3 15:31:49 CEST 2005 Compile host : gieselher Install prefix : /develop/portux/56597/kaffe-arm-install Thread system : unix-pthreads Garbage Collector: kaffe-gc CC : arm-linux-gcc CFLAGS : -g -O2 -Wall -fsigned-char -fno-omit-frame-pointer -pthread -DENABLE_BINRELOC LDFLAGS : ChangeLog head : 2005-04-05 Jim Pick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> When I start the hello-world application with --with-engine=jit, the whole crashes with a kernel oops: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:$ ./java -v HelloWorld pc : [<4007e874>] lr : [<4007e848>] Not tainted sp : bffff934 ip : bffff934 fp : bffff95c r10: 400a37b8 r9 : 00010000 r8 : 00000000 r7 : 00000001 r6 : 000ba02c r5 : 400a88d8 r4 : 00001000 r3 : c0000000 r2 : bffff000 r1 : 400a88d8 r0 : 00001000 Flags: nzCv IRQs on FIQs on Mode USER_32 Segment user Control: C000317F Table: 2272C000 DAC: 00000015 The output is quite different for --with-engine=intrp, java stops execution after some oopses with a NULL-Pointer exception (I omitted the loaded classes before the oops to shorten the message): Loading java/lang/reflect/Array.class(/develop/portux/56597/kaffe-arm-install/jr e/lib/rt.jar) [compressed] pc : [<4020be10>] lr : [<4004fd0c>] Not tainted sp : bfffc6b8 ip : 00000000 fp : bfffc744 r10: 4008d164 r9 : 00000001 r8 : 00000000 r7 : 00000003 r6 : bfffc9e8 r5 : bfffc6d8 r4 : 00000000 r3 : 00000000 r2 : 00000020 r1 : 00000000 r0 : 00000000 Flags: nzCv IRQs on FIQs on Mode USER_32 Segment user Control: C000317F Table: 2272C000 DAC: 00000015 Loading java/lang/ExceptionInInitializerError.class(/develop/portux/56597/kaffe- arm-install/jre/lib/rt.jar) [compressed] pc : [<4020be10>] lr : [<4004fd0c>] Not tainted sp : bfffc654 ip : 00000000 fp : bfffc6e0 r10: 4008d164 r9 : 00000001 r8 : 00000009 r7 : 00000003 r6 : bfffc94c r5 : bfffc674 r4 : 00000000 r3 : 00000000 r2 : 00000020 r1 : 00000000 r0 : 00000000 Flags: nzCv IRQs on FIQs on Mode USER_32 Segment user Control: C000317F Table: 2272C000 DAC: 00000015 pc : [<4020be10>] lr : [<4004fd0c>] Not tainted sp : bfffcc3c ip : 00000000 fp : bfffccc8 r10: 4008d164 r9 : 00000001 r8 : 00000009 r7 : 00000003 r6 : bfffcf34 r5 : bfffcc5c r4 : 00000000 r3 : 00000000 r2 : 00000020 r1 : 00000000 r0 : 00000000 Flags: nzCv IRQs on FIQs on Mode USER_32 Segment user Control: C000317F Table: 2272C000 DAC: 00000015 pc : [<4020be10>] lr : [<4004fd0c>] Not tainted sp : bfffd930 ip : 00000000 fp : bfffd9bc r10: 4008d164 r9 : 00000001 r8 : 00000009 r7 : 00000003 r6 : bfffdc28 r5 : bfffd950 r4 : 00000000 r3 : 00000000 r2 : 00000020 r1 : 00000000 r0 : 00000000 Flags: nzCv IRQs on FIQs on Mode USER_32 Segment user Control: C000317F Table: 2272C000 DAC: 00000015 pc : [<4020be10>] lr : [<4004fd0c>] Not tainted sp : bfffe16c ip : 00000000 fp : bfffe1f8 r10: 4008d164 r9 : 00000001 r8 : 00000009 r7 : 00000003 r6 : bfffe464 r5 : bfffe18c r4 : 00000000 r3 : 00000000 r2 : 00000020 r1 : 00000000 r0 : 00000000 Flags: nzCv IRQs on FIQs on Mode USER_32 Segment user Control: C000317F Table: 2272C000 DAC: 00000015 Internal error: caught an unexpected exception.

The error remains the same. Now I'm a little clueless. Any pointer in what direction to look for a solution would be highly appreciated.
