That isn't an option IMO. You only need a byte code interpreter on the target, no? No need for having native code in the first stage? So gij, witten in C++ is enough? GCC basically carries the source load of a complete java (bytecode) stack just to make the bootstrap use native code in the first stage!? Richard. >Andrew.
