Free Java on Familiar ARM

[Fernando Lozano]

Hi Jari,

I have generated by cross-compiler before, the real problem is 
corss-compiling all the libs you do need to develop real applications 
(some of them are not amigable to cross-build) AND to do the corerct 
releases for the PDA as it can't store many files on the limited flash 
availabe.

My dream is having, besides GCJ, JavaGnome and a Java binding for the 
gpe-widgets. You really miss these customized GTK/Gnome components when 
developing for Linux PDAs. But I'd be also happy with Kaffe or another 
JVM and SWT libs. :-)

[]s, Fernando Lozano
