Hi, I'm not part of the GNU Classpath team, but I'm using it and well, I have to say that I love it! At least for embedded systems it's great... But to answer your question, the method font.getName() isn't implemented (yet) in GNU Classpath 0.98. You can check the coverage for GNU Classpath against Java 1.5 on this site: http://www.kaffe.org/~stuart/japi/htmlout/h- jdk15-classpath.html There you can find: 'method java.awt.Font.getName(): missing in classpath'. What is a nice answer I guess... It don't means that you can't use the java.awt.Font, but the method .getName isn't implemented yet. I hope this is a good answer for you question... Good luck, Jan Pannecoeck Dhaval Yoganandi <dhaval.yoganandi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi GNU classpath team, > >I'm facing some problem using jfree chart with GNU classpath 0.98 and >JamVM.
