I would love to and I am looking forward that gcj is in a state where it is useful. Currently, however, gcj is still behind Java 1.1, which makes it useless for any more serious Java application project. I am a little worried, since I have not seen a lot of progress announced for gcj since last year. May be I was too far detached, but I hope it's developers won't run out of energy before we all see the glory and performance of their work! IMHO, gcj is definitely the way to go in the future. regards -Gunther Gunther Schadow ----------------------------------- http://aurora.rg.iupui.edu Regenstrief Institute for Health Care 1001 W 10th Street RG5, Indianapolis IN 46202, Phone: (317) 630 7960 schadow@aurora.rg.iupui.edu ---------------------- #include <usual/disclaimer> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
