> Hello everybody. I am a computer science student at Barcelona/Spain.
> I was recently making a peek in the kaffe project and sources.  I am
> finishing my studies in UPC (Politecnical Univeristy of Catalonia) and
> my goal is to do a little study about hardware implementations of java
> for my final project. The basic idea is try to find out how easy or hard
is
> design a microprocessor that can execute both native and java code and
> the performace that a machine of this kind can get.... If you prefer how
good
> could be the performance of a system with a standard risc-like processor
> (I am thinking in a UltraSparc, Alpha, ...) with java capability
extensions
> that ease and accelerate the implementation of a JRE over this machine.
>
> The scope of the project is only at desing (computer architecture ) levels
so  I
> need a JVM implementation that could be adapted to run the bytecodes over
my
> simulated microprocessor rather than translating it (JIT) or making a pure
> software interpretation. I think kaffe is perfect for this!
>
> 1) The question is, there is some free documentation that I could use to
get
> started with Kaffe source. Kaffe is a more or less big an complex peace of
> software so just reading the code is a hard and slow way to understand it
;-)

> 2) Somebody can explain me how to enable/desable JIT? Both the interpreted
and
> "JITed" version are included in the sources but JIT3 are used by
default...
