Hi all,
here is the debian bug reports summary:
Bugs not fixed (tested by me):
#255418:
Error when directory containing the class has special characters
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=255418
Seems not to be kaffe specific (jamvm/sablevm fail too)
#305258: java/lang/Runtime.availableProcessors not implemented
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=305258
Seems to be kaffe specific (Runtime.c implementation)
#307983: setting java.util.logging.Logger handlers
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=307983
Seems to be kaffe specific (jamvm works)
still present with CVS 12/07/05:
java.lang.ClassCastException: can't cast `java/util/logging/ConsoleHandler'
(bootstrap@(nil)) to `TestHandler' (java/lang/ClassLoader$1 at 0x82da3dc)
at Main.main (Main.java:34)
Bugs partly fixed:
#270709: Kaffe can't run Apache Struts webapp
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=270709
Tested - the original error didn't appear anymore. But somehow kaffe
gets a ClassNotFoundException searching for a class in struts-legacy.jar
which is not deployed with tomcat4. The wired thing is that SUN JDK
doesn't need this class from the jar - there must be somewhere inside
struts a test of none-sun runtimes or something which requests this
legacy class.
After putting struts-legacy in classpath I got NumberFormatExceptions
during properties loading - moving all properties files out of the way
the tomcat admin webapp worked :-)
Needs to be more investigated why it wants struts-legacy.jar and why it
fails with NumberFormatException during loading this properties files.
Any clues ?
Bugs fixed (tested by me):
#255502:
Incorrect result due to computations in extended precision on x86
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=255502
#308532: getMethodSignatureClass: Assertion `class->state >=
CSTATE_DOING_LINK' failed
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=308532
#308745: Tomcat 4 fails to start with Kaffe; Security Manager issue
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=308745
Bugs fixed/implemented upstream (classpath cvs):
#305623: java.nio.FileChannelImpl.lock(): not implemented
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=305623
Implemented recently in classpath CVS
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/classpath-patches/2005-07/msg00158.html
Feature Requests:
#304927: Kaffe: javah missing -force option
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=304927
Seems to be needed for the subversion javahl build with
kaffe - so would be nice to have :-)
#296569: kaffe: Add -V option to jar implementation
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=296569
I don't see a -V or --version option in either SUN JDK
1.4 or 1.5 - well fastjar has it. I will ask the bug submitter
for more information.
The remaining debian kaffe bugs are packaging issues - so
nothing you have to bother with.
Regards,
Wolfgang
