If you'd read the GCC install documentation (or Andrew's reply to you last month) you'd know you should not run ./configure: http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/FAQ#configure If you are unsure what options to give to configure then get hold of a working GCJ for mingw32 and run "gcj -v" which will show you how it was configured. You can probably use the same options. > -Does the GCJ 4.6.0 allow java code to be compiled > into Linux/Mac/Windows executables, > ie machine code for those operating systems?
