Compiling RMI Applications ?

Another problem you will run into is that GCJ does not yet support
dynamic class loading, which means that all of your RMI stubs will
need to be statically compiled into the client application, as well
as into the Registry.
I'm wondering what the status of dynamic class loading in GCJ is. Is
anyone working on this? How hard would it be to compile .class files to
shared objects (.so) and have "System.loadClass()" look for a .so and
load that into the address space of the process? The tricky bits would
be resolving class constants and so forth, but it should be possible.
Thoughts?
