Documentation
authoritative source for how an XWT engine should
behave.
-- Javadoc [http://www.xwt.org/javadoc/]
-
- The org.xwt.* packages are all documented with javadoc. You
- should start by reading the package summary for org.xwt.Main,
- and work your way around from there.
-
-- Javasrc [http://www.xwt.org/javasrc]
-
- Javasrc generates a syntax-colored and hyperlinked html copy of
- the XWT source code.

Building
+- WARNING: Jikes 1.16 has a bug which will cause it to generate
+ corrupt .class files; you must downgrade to 1.15 in order to compile
+ XWT.
+
- If you only want to build the JVM version of XWT, delete these three
files:
This will allow XWT to build correctly *without* gcc 3.1. Otherwise,
you must compile and install gcc 3.1.
-
- The Win32 native version of XWT can ONLY be built with the very
- latest pre-release of GCC 3.1. You can follow the steps below to
- create a cross-compiler from linux to Win32.
-
- If the steps below fail, try adding "-D 20-Mar-2002" to the cvs
- checkout line; 20-Mar-2002 was the last date on which the compiler
- was known to work. Please don't do this unless you have attempted
- without it, however, since it puts additional strain on the gcc cvs
- server.
-
- There are also two patches at the end of this file which can be
- applied to the branch -- the first fixes an inet_addr() bug on
- Win32, the second enables stack traces.

-
+ latest pre-release of GCC 3.3. Run "make gcc-lin" to build a gcc
+ 3.3 that targets Linux; run "make gcc-win" to build a gcc 3.3 that
+ targets Win32.

-Native-Code "ant"
-
-** THIS DOESN'T WORK YET **
-
-Ant takes a long time to start up, mainly because it has to load a
-JVM. If you compile ant to native code using GCJ, it will load much
-more quickly. So far, this only works on Linux.
-
- mkdir /tmp/ant
- cd /tmp/ant
- jar xvf ~/xwt/lib/ant.jar
- for A in `find * -name \*.properties -or -name \*.txt -or -name \*.mf`
- do gcj -c --resource $A $A -o $A.o
- done
- CLASSPATH= gcj --main=org.apache.tools.ant.Main \
- `find . -name \*.class -or -name \*.o` -o ant
- mv ant ~/xwt/ant
