I hate to ask this, because it must come up a lot, but I can't find any
answer elsewhere.
I just compiled kaffe 0.8.2 with the biss-awt package (the version that
was on the kaffe ftp site and said it went with 0.8.2) on Linux. Hello
world ran fine. When I first tried to use an AWT app, I came across an
egregious bug--it couldn't find the awt shared library. I found I had to
create a link called libkaffe_awt.so pointing to libkaffe_bissawt.so.
When I fixed this and tried again, I got:
Failed to locate native function:
sun/awt/motif/MToolkit.init()V
java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError
at sun/awt/motif/MToolkit.<init>(41)
at java/awt/Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit(190)
at java/awt/Window.getToolkit(155)
at java/awt/Frame.addNotify(82)
...
This seems like it must also be a pretty simple problem, but I don't know
how to track it down. I've set my environment exactly as given in the
documentation (I also tried adding biss.zip to my classpath). Can anyone
help? Are other people using kaffe 0.8.2 with the biss-awt?
Also (and this may be asking too much at this point!), would anyone mind
giving an overview of how using the biss-awt for the java.awt classes is
achieved? I've looked at the sources in the biss-net.com directory, but
it's not clear to me what is straight from biss, what is additional, and
what is modified.
