[gentoo-java] Using gcj as JVM on ppc

[gentoo-java] Using gcj as JVM on ppc

[David Gurvich]

Well, I have now managed to compile and install eclipse-sdk-3.2_rc5 from 
geki's gcj-overlay.  The native compiled version seems to be running much 
faster and using less memory.  

All that is aside from the fact that eclipse was not running at all with 
ibm-jdk-bin as JVM.

The ebuild required resetting -java5home to "/opt/ibm-jdk-bin-1.5.0/",  for 
some reason the setting was "/usr/share/classpath/".  I have no idea why.

Also there was a setting under GECKO_SDK where one of the include directories 
was "JAVA_HOME/include/linux".  Does anyone have such a directory?

I told you why I am using GNU Classpath generics branch for Java5 code.
I do not want to depend on virtual/jdk-1.5 there.
This may change in future.

Thank you, I did not understand before.  I simply noticed that there was no 
such directory.  I see now that I had gnu-classpath installed after 
gnu-classpath-generics and that classpath blocks generics on my system.  That 
is perhaps why there was no /usr/share/classpath/ directory on my system.
