Hi all, has someone succeded on building and using Eclipse with
Free Vm (like sablevm or kaffe) + Classpath ???



Sure. It works with most of the free runtimes now.
You have your choice of:

- mono + ikvm.net
http://weblog.ikvm.net/PermaLink.aspx/894943be-451e-4d6c-a692-77119eb02d06
(2.1 only as far as I know, but IKVM.NET follows GNU Classpath quite
closely so getting 3.0M4 working should not be that difficult.)

- kaffe
Kaffe from CVS (will become 1.1.3 in one/two weeks) can run Eclipse 2.1
out of the box. 3.0M4 needs some patches (that might or might not make
it for 1.1.3):

Of course kaffe is as interested in new hackers as any other VM to help us push the treshold for free java runtimes a little higher [1]. ;) The earnest work takes place on the kaffe mailing list, the chit-chat is happening on #kaffe on irc.freenode.org.

In any case, if someone would like to contribute to any of the free VMs, be it kaffe, wonka, sablevm, etc. please make sure that you meet some clean-room conditions as outlined here: http://www.kaffe.org/pipermail/kaffe/2003-November/044406.html

cheers,

Kaffe works with Classpath classes or his own implementation of the Java API ???

And...What are the main diferences between Kaffe, Wonka and SableVM?

Thx
