Hi, everyone.

I'm porting GCJ to a non-mainstream platform, which is a RISC machine
with some similarity to ARM.
The GCC I'm using is version 4.4.2. I start the porting from ARM's code.


There is quite a bit of work involved in getting libgcj running on a new target. One thing that is obvious from your stack trace is that the stack unwinding code is not decoding the instruction pointer properly. That would be one place to start.

Unfortunatly, there isn't really one specific thing we can point you to. You will probably have to step through things with GDB and make sure that are the target specific code is doing the right thing.

The boehm-gc may need porting as well. Actually I might start with boehm-gc, I think it has its own test suite, so it can be debugged separately.

Then look at all the target specific code for a known working target (arm, mips, x86, etc...) and try to verify that your target code functions correctly.

Good Luck,

When running the GCJ on the target platform, it mentioned that the ECJ
is needed. I don't know whether GCJ can live without ECJ, so I
donwload the latest ECJ jar file and recompiled.

When running GCJ to compile a JAVA source file, I got the following error.

[root@localhost pxx]# gcj -C HelloWorld.java -v

Could anyone give me some hints on how could this happen?
I really appreciate you patience.
