Re: JDK 1.1 advantage?

     


I would also like to be able to run 1.1 Jigsaw on a VMS (Vax) machine.
do you know of a 1.0.2 or 1.1 JVM that will run on this platform ?

1.0alpha5 will compile/run under 1.1 (not taking advantage of it 
fully, though)
     
My plan was for next release to be totally 1.1, I had hopes that by 
next June, all Java VM would have been 1.1. As this doesn't seem to ne 
realistic, I might, as you say have to do two releases (a tough job 
:-(
     
If you have strong feelings against a Java 1.1 only release in June, 
let me know,
