Short: Fast Java compiler, v1.18 (68000 binary) Author: The Jikes Project Uploader: kyrimis cti gr (Kriton Kyrimis) Type: dev/lang Version: 1.18 Architecture: m68k-amigaos This is a native Amiga port (no ixemul.library required) of jikes, the free Java compiler from IBM, compiled for a plain 68000. The distinction between stable and development version has been dropped, so the Aminet version is the latest version. The relevant files can also be downloaded from the Amiga Jikes home page at http://dias.cti.gr/~kyrimis/jikes/ . REQUIREMENTS: * An Amiga with enough memory to run the program. * The Java run-time classes (e.g., those from Sun, or from Kaffe). * If you want to use the "-encoding" option, you must install ICU, IBM's International Classes for Unicode, available at both Aminet and the Amiga Jikes web site. INSTALLATION: Simply copy the jikes executable somewhere in your path. If you have not installed ICU and you do not have a GG: assign in your system, then set the environment variable ICU_DATA to point to some directory, e.g., "setenv ICU_DATA RAM:" or "setenv ICU_DATA RAM:T/" (make sure you add the trailing slash), so that you do not get requesters for GG: when you run Jikes. USAGE: Set either the CLASSPATH or the JIKESPATH environment variable to point to the directories and zip/jar files that you want your compiler to use. E.g., if you are using Kaffe, you can say: setenv CLASSPATH "GG:share/kaffe/Klasses.jar;GG:share/kaffe/Pizza.jar;." Separate the path components using semicolons. You can use UNIX "." and ".." notation for the current directory and for the parent directory of a directory. If you find a bug in the Amiga port, you can contact me at kyrimis@cti.gr and I'll see what I can do.
