This is application badness. Ideally they wouldn't be using this class directly. If rewriting this code isn't an option, have a look at gnu.gcj.protocol.file.Handler to see if it will do the job. > Minor issues are building the modified rhino module, and some odds and > ends in the wizards and qadev modules Check out rhug for autotooled gcj enabled rhino. There's even an RPM spec file. http://sources.redhat.com/rhug Just FYI, however, I expect rhug will go away when we all start using GCC 4, since building and running java apps/libraries with GCC 4 will be much easier.
