Great job, Dhruwat! I was going to look into it myself as I desperately need Java. Too bad Harmony is going to the trash bin :(
I'll give it a try as soon as possible. Any chanche to run JBoss? Eclipse is asking too much, perhaps :) Regards, Gabriele Il 20/11/11 08.13, Dhruwat Bhagat ha scritto:
Hi, I have ported Apache Harmony to Haiku. I have replaced the the ant build process that Harmony uses for the c/c++ code with a Make build process. While the Makefiles aren't pretty and do some redundant work everytime they are run even if it is not needed, but they work and let you compile the code. For the Java code, I simply copy the compiled code from a windows build to the Haiku build. I have tested successfully with a "Hello World" class. However, if you send a signal to the currently executing Harmony process then one of the daemon threads crashes. Harmony has a suite of test cases to test the Java functionality which I plan to test so that more issues can be detected. There are one or two POSIX thread functions that Harmony uses but are not provided by Haiku so I have written the stub implementation for them in the Harmony port. I am going to submit patches for these functions and if they are accepted then I will be able to remove the stubs from the port code. The port code doesn't really comply with the coding standards of Haiku or Harmony, which needs to be worked upon. I have made the binary code available at http://haikuware.com/directory/view-details/development/language/apache-harmony-java and the source code at http://www.dhruwat.com/svn/harmonyforhaiku . If the source link doesn't hold up very well then I will move the source to a more reliable place. cheers, Dhruwat
