GCJ: How To?

Hi,

I checked out http://www.oopo.net/consoledev/
and everything works fine (except 009-psplinkusb.sh, which is not a
tragedy).

I tried to get GCJ (GNU Compiler for Java) to work, by just editing

005-gcc-4.1.0-stage2.sh

Line 17:

Code: Select all

 ../configure --prefix="$PSPDEV" --target="psp" --enable-languages="c,c++,java" --with-newlib --enable-cxx-flags="-G0" || &#123; exit 1; &#125;

Is this all I have to do, or is there more to be done?

PS
I am not a C/C++ coder - so please don't try to convince me ;)

I think it's not as much a matter of convincing, as it is a problem of the (non-) existence of libraries or C bindings that would let you get anything done. (unless I missed something)

True, but one could use JNI or CNI to access C/C++ routines.

Some things turn out to be easy, like libFLAC was. Somehow I doubt gcj will be easy, but you never know until someone tries it.

I researched into getting Objective-C to work, and I was able to get everything together, but I ended up getting linker errors... You can try, and good luck if you succeed.

It did compile, but now I am getting this error message:

Code: Select all

$ psp-gcj
psp-gcj&#58; libgcj.spec&#58; No such file or directory

I am using cygwin with Win XP.
