For loading classes you should used the "gcjlib" protocol.
I tried this protocol also... without any success. Does it work for
statically linked classes? From what I could gather from the source
code, it only will load resources from .so/shared objects.
I'de like to keep all my classes linked into a self contained executable
if possible... though I think the ability to do both is important.
You should be able to load resources from shared libraries too.
Resources as in, images/.class files? What about natively compiled
classes? This is what I'm stuck on. I'll look in to the code a little
more to try to figure out whats going on...
If this isn't possible a pointer or two on where to poke around for
implementing this would be great, I'm still new to GCJ internals (and
compiler architecture in general).
Sorry for the headache, but I do a lot of research involving custom
classloaders (distributed computing, sandboxing), being able to compile
and distribute these as self contained executables would be *really*
great :)
