They can be downloaded here: http://java.sun.com/j2se/jrl_download.html Tue, 12 Oct 2004 19:08:46 GMT Neal Gafter http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/102 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/102 I have left Sun and now work at Google. Peter Ahe maintains javac at Sun, and is now the owner of this group. Peter will probably take on spec leadership for Fri, 26 Sep 2003 16:42:00 GMT Neal M Gafter http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/101 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/101 Huw- The J2SE 1.5 (Tiger) planning folks have further scaled back how much of something like JSR199 they want in Tiger. Now all that's going in to Tiger is a Sun, 17 Aug 2003 22:41:00 GMT Neal Gafter http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/100 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/100 ... That is exactly right: the proposed simple tool API is little more than an abstraction of the entry point to the compiler. The "little more" is that you Thu, 14 Aug 2003 21:22:09 GMT Neal Gafter http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/99 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/99 I've updated the API to repond to a number of comments. David Flanagan's comments were typical of those I am responding to, so I've included his comments with Thu, 14 Aug 2003 21:16:57 GMT Neal Gafter http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/98 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/98 ... The mechanism for implementing a command (now tool) should not be specified in the API, as it is up to the vendor of a JDK to implement them however they Thu, 07 Aug 2003 09:04:27 GMT Olivier Lefevre http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/97 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/97 ... That would be nice. If there is no document outlining its design philosophy, that is not very conducive to taking it into account when researching existing Wed, 06 Aug 2003 08:47:32 GMT Philippe P Mulet http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/96 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/96 I was only mentionning alternate APIs for the long term story when we want to address this JSR. There is no existing documentation reflecting the Eclipse Fri, 25 Jul 2003 20:47:49 GMT Olivier Lefevre http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/95 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/95 ... Oops, sorry. You may have said this earlier and I may have noted it but there is so little traffic on this list that I forgot ;-) ... You misunderstood me.

It defaults to javax_compiler_owner@yahoogroups.com, which means it only Fri, 25 Jul 2003 13:07:38 GMT pmulet2003 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/93 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/93 The middle road approach suits us. The long term story should however consider existing alternate API, such as the one our Eclipse compiler provides as of Thu, 26 Jun 2003 06:18:58 GMT Neal Gafter http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/92 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/92 ... The basic constraints are time and resources. To be included in Tiger, we have to be substantially done with the spec and reference implementation by Wed, 25 Jun 2003 16:17:04 GMT Neal Gafter http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/91 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/91 I've been getting some follow-up messages, but all of them in private email. Please make a point of sending your replies to the mailing list (if you're a Tue, 24 Jun 2003 07:20:54 GMT Neal M Gafter http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/90 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/90 ... I think this is an excellent idea. ... This too is a good idea. However, different complers may have completely different command lines, which means a Tue, 24 Jun 2003 06:54:33 GMT Neal Gafter http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/89 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/message/89 I've also placed the draft simple API in the files section at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/javax_compiler/files/
