I would like to announce the availability of MacJikes. MacJikes is based on software developed by IBM Corp. as part of the IBM Research Jikes Compiler Project, http://www.ibm.com/research/jikes. MacJikes v1.0 contains parts of Jikes Version 0.41 (01 Dec 98). MacJikes's core is a Java compiler that conforms strictly to the Java language specification. "javac" is written in java itself, so its speed is dependant on the speed of your Java virtual machine, as well as your hardware. MacJikes is completely written in C++, so by being compiled natively for PowerPC and 68k, it runs multiple times faster than "javac"! The current version of MacJikes as a standalone application currently has only a command line interface. A GUI is on the way. This release is a working proof of concept and is being made available so you can experience it under MacOS. Available versions: MPW Tool for 68k MPW Tool for PowerPC Standalone application for 68k Standalone application for PowerPC Command line builder applet For further information, read the Frequently Asked Questions at: http://www.uiuc.edu/ph/www/s-bytnar/projects/MacJikes/macjikes_faq.html
