Here’s a screenshot of a JOGL demo running on Sun and libgcj: As you can see, it’s hard to tell which is which! Big Merge The screenshot represents several efforts coming together. First, the demo is running on natively-compiled GNU Classpath HEAD. Tom Tromey recently finished the Big Merge, making Classpath a sub-directory of gcc/libjava. …

Sven de Marothy completely rewrote the image-handling sections of the GTK peers. This was one of the most convoluted areas in the peers and one of the buggiest. Now it is very clear and well-organized. Check out this screenshot: The top is JDK 1.4, centre is Classpath 0.14 and bottom is Classpath HEAD with Sven’s …
I submitted my ecj option parsing patch to Eclipse. The patch went into Rawhide’s eclipse-ecj last night, which meant I was able to remove the last option munging stuff from java-gcj-compat.

This patch adds the missing methods that Caolan mentioned in his blog. This is the last GCJ AWT vs. …
The Fedora Core 4 Eclipse Bugzilla plugin now supports HTTPS sites: Getting this working involved quite a bit of testing and integration work. Casey fixed an x509 parsing bug, I merged GNU Classpath’s HTTPS handler into libgcj and I packaged Jessie’s SSL provider. Next step: merge Jessie into GNU Classpath.
