It think it best to not depend on another 3rd-party tool by default,
agreed. I would not propopse adding this rule to the libjava Makefile.
however it would certainly be good to have something like this available
as an option. Something that exists already is "make JAVAC=jikes", which
will just use jikes instead of "gcj -C" to build the class files.
I'm sorry to be the one to keep bringing this up, but my understanding is that
"make JAVAC=jikes" will fill my build directory with class files which gcj
native cannot use, due to some sort of magical attribute stuck on the class
files. I have only a few options:
- make JAVAC=jikes && make clean && make
(which defeats the point of using make at all)
- make -C some-duplicate-build-dir JAVAC=jikes
(which means I need to keep its Makefiles and configury right too)
- just run my own rule from outside of gcc's Makefiles
(this is what I am doing)
