Severity: normal

In converting the libnbio2-java package to build with all free tools, I
have discovered that gij is not able to run some programs that are part
of the NBIO test suite, although other interepreters such as Kaffe can.
There was a long discussion in debian-java on the general subject of
converting NBIO, starting here:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-java/2002/debian-java-200211/msg00038.html
A discussion of the problems I had with gij starts near here:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-java/2002/debian-java-200211/msg00047.html
At the time of this conversation, I passed the information in this bug
report off to Tom Tromey because he asked for it; I decided it would be
worthwhile to file a bug, as well.
The bug can be reproduced by first installing the libnbio2-java
package, version 2.0-5, and then building and running part of the NBIO
test suite based on the installed NBIO jarfile. The attached file
'script-gij' provides a recipe to reproduce the problem, assuming that
the libnio2-java package is already installed. (I hope the attachment
is OK; reportbug hosed it previously, and this time I attached it
directly from mutt.)
Version 2.0-5 of libnbio2-java may or may not be in the archive when you
get this report, since my sponsor may not have had a chance to upload
it yet. If you don't want to wait for it to appear the archive before
researching this bug, you can get it using this apt data source:
# Cedar Solutions updates
deb ftp://cedar-solutions.com/debian unstable main
deb-src ftp://cedar-solutions.com/debian unstable main
or you can just grab it directly via FTP:
ftp://cedar-solutions.com/debian/java/libnbio2-java/
Please let me know if there is any other information I can get you.
I'd be happy to help in any way that I can.
