You end up having to modify the application to understand how to treat gcj specially. This is what we did in the Eclipse 2.x days, but in 3.x they changed their class loaders and we didn't want to repeat the hacking... hence the current approach, which is invisible to the application. But, it certainly could be done. I think OSGi (the class loading infrastructure eclipse uses) leaves open the possibility of changes like this -- you can write your own low-level bits or something. (Obviously I'm not up on the details :-) Tom
