| 1 | New in libgcj X.XX:
|
|---|
| 2 |
|
|---|
| 3 | * libgcj now includes a bytecode interpreter. If a compiled version of a class
|
|---|
| 4 | is not found in the application binary or linked shared libraries, the
|
|---|
| 5 | class loader will search for a bytecode version in the CLASSPATH and execute
|
|---|
| 6 | it using the interpreter. A new front end that behaves like the traditional
|
|---|
| 7 | `java' command is also provided: `gij'.
|
|---|
| 8 |
|
|---|
| 9 | * Support for specifying java system properties. Properties can either be set
|
|---|
| 10 | at runtime via the GCJ_PROPERTIES environment variable in the format
|
|---|
| 11 | "<name>=<value> ..."'; or can be compiled into an application binary using
|
|---|
| 12 | -D<name>=<value>.
|
|---|
| 13 |
|
|---|
| 14 | * Support for setjmp/longjmp (sjlj) exception handling has been added, as an
|
|---|
| 15 | alternative to the existing range-table based mechanism. sjlj is the default
|
|---|
| 16 | on non-sparc, non-x86 targets, or can be specified with the
|
|---|
| 17 | `--enable-sjlj-exceptions' configure parameter.
|
|---|
| 18 |
|
|---|
| 19 | * Complete JDK 1.1 reflection support, including invocation.
|
|---|
| 20 |
|
|---|
| 21 | * Throwable.printStackTrace() has been implemented.
|
|---|
| 22 |
|
|---|
| 23 | * Runtime.loadLibrary() has been implemented.
|
|---|
| 24 |
|
|---|
| 25 | * Class.forName() will now try to load a series of shared objects in order
|
|---|
| 26 | to find the requested class. If a class `gnu.quux.whatever' is requested,
|
|---|
| 27 | libgcj will search the system shared library path (eg LD_LIBRARY_PATH) for
|
|---|
| 28 | `gnu-quux-whatever.so', then `gnu-quux.so', and finally `gnu.so'.
|
|---|
| 29 |
|
|---|
| 30 | * A pure-java implementation of java.math.BigInteger.
|
|---|
| 31 |
|
|---|
| 32 | New in libgcj 2.95:
|
|---|
| 33 |
|
|---|
| 34 | * First public release
