Hi Svante,
thanks for your reply. I would really love to hear something more about
your project. Could you give me some pointers and/or send me some of your
papers? And yes, the source code could would sure be very helpful to me.
Right now I am going very slowly about this, any sort of external input
would certainly help me a lot.
The processor I am trying to port to is LX, a processor mostly for
embedded devices, designed by HP and ST.
Thanks again,
Gerlando

The jit framework was not constructed for VLIW architectures so I've done some workaround solutions. If Kaffe is to be ported to a number of VLIW architectures someone should make the jit compiler framework more general to faciliate this.
