Or please tell >> me which directory or file to have a look. The sources are in gcc/java. `gcj' is just the name of the resulting executable. I don't think the java compiler is in egcs 1.1. I think you'll have to get egcs from the cvs repository to see the java front end. Maybe I'm wrong? I don't really pay attention to the egcs release cycle. >> Are you saying in the short run, cygnus will only support JNI, and >> no further commitment has made for C++? No, in fact I'm saying the opposite: we currently have C++ support working (that is, `native' methods can be written in a natural way in C++). We don't currently have JNI support. >> By the way, will gcj support packages like java.lang.*, >> java.util.*, java.awt.* etc.? We currently have, with some minor exceptions, java.lang, java.util, and java.io. We also have a few other random things (e.g., a couple classes in java.lang.reflect, but not all of them). We don't have java.awt. I don't really know what other libraries we are planning to write. Of course you're always free to implement them yourself. Tom
