(NASDAQ: MTWKF, TSE/ME:MWK) announces today that it will license its Java Acceleration Technology for PowerPC(tm) to the Linux community. Metrowerks' Java technology, a Just-in-Time (JIT) compiler, will be provided to Linux users under a free non-commercial license similar to that used by Sun's Java Development Source code. Metrowerks' CodeWarrior Java acceleration technology provides a drop-in, JIT compiler for the LinuxPPC and MkLinux ported Java Development Kit (JDK). The CodeWarrior JIT compiler increases the performance of Sun's JDK by a factor of five to ten on most machines, by efficiently compiling the Java byte-codes into machine code for a particular CPU at run-time. Linux users may port Metrowerks' JIT compiler to run on x86, Alpha and Sparc and other UNIX platforms that do not currently have access to a commercial quality JIT compiler. The Blackdown JDK porters, an organized group of volunteers porting Sun's JDK to Linux, have already agreed to help port this JIT to other versions of Linux and make those ports freely available in binary code. --<cut>-- -- J C Lawrence Internet: claw#null,net (Contractor) Internet: coder#ibm,net ---------(*) Internet: claw#under,engr.sgi.com ...Honourary Member of Clan McFud -- Teamer's Avenging Monolith... </PRE> <!--X-Body-of-Message-End--> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <HR> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <!--X-References-End--> <!--X-BotPNI--> <UL> <LI>Prev by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg01224.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: let's call it a spellcraft</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg01226.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: let's call it a spellcraft</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Prev by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg01236.html">[MUD-Dev] Zelda Online</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg01205.html">[MUD-Dev] Summary of off-list META comments:</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Index(es): <UL> <LI><A HREF="index.html#01225"><STRONG>Date</STRONG></A></LI> <LI><A HREF="thread.html#01225"><STRONG>Thread</STRONG></A></LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> <!--X-BotPNI-End--> <!--X-User-Footer--> <!--X-User-Footer-End--> <ul><li>Thread context: <BLOCKQUOTE><UL> <LI><STRONG>[MUD-Dev] Re: FPL: Another embeddable bytecoded scripting language</STRONG>, <EM>(continued)</EM> <ul compact> <LI><strong><A NAME="01262" HREF="msg01262.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: FPL: Another embeddable bytecoded scripting language</A></strong>, Ling <a href="mailto:K.L.Lo-94#student,lboro.ac.uk">K.L.Lo-94#student,lboro.ac.uk</a>, Sat 26 Sep 1998, 13:00 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="01266" HREF="msg01266.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: FPL: Another embeddable bytecoded scripting language</A></strong>, J C Lawrence <a href="mailto:claw#kanga,nu">claw#kanga,nu</a>, Sat 26 Sep 1998, 16:20 GMT </LI> </UL> </LI> </ul> </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="01234" HREF="msg01234.html">[MUD-Dev] Game Design Issues (Was: Re: let's call it a spel</A></strong>, Michael.Willey <a href="mailto:Michael.Willey#abnamro,com">Michael.Willey#abnamro,com</a>, Fri 25 Sep 1998, 20:56 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="01236" HREF="msg01236.html">[MUD-Dev] Zelda Online</A></strong>, Orion Henry <a href="mailto:orionz#ix,netcom.com">orionz#ix,netcom.com</a>, Fri 25 Sep 1998, 23:06 GMT </LI> </UL> </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="01225" HREF="msg01225.html">[MUD-Dev] Metroworks JIT for Linux</A></strong>, J C Lawrence <a href="mailto:claw#under,engr.sgi.com">claw#under,engr.sgi.com</a>, Fri 25 Sep 1998, 18:21 GMT <LI><strong><A NAME="01205" HREF="msg01205.html">[MUD-Dev] Summary of off-list META comments:</A></strong>, J C Lawrence <a href="mailto:claw#under,engr.sgi.com">claw#under,engr.sgi.com</a>, Fri 25 Sep 1998, 02:01 GMT <LI><strong><A NAME="01204" HREF="msg01204.html">[MUD-Dev] FYI: gamora</A></strong>, Vadim Tkachenko <a href="mailto:vt#freehold,crocodile.org">vt#freehold,crocodile.org</a>, Fri 25 Sep 1998, 00:22 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="01207" HREF="msg01207.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: FYI: gamora</A></strong>, Caliban Tiresias Darklock <a href="mailto:caliban#darklock,com">caliban#darklock,com</a>, Fri 25 Sep 1998, 03:02 GMT </LI> </UL> </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="01184" HREF="msg01184.html">[MUD-Dev] META: Web posting from list archives</A></strong>, J C Lawrence <a href="mailto:claw#under,engr.sgi.com">claw#under,engr.sgi.com</a>, Thu 24 Sep 1998, 06:02 GMT </UL></BLOCKQUOTE> </ul> <hr> <center> [ <a href="../">Other Periods</a> | <a href="../../">Other mailing lists</a> | <a href="/search.php3">Search</a> ] </center> <hr> </body> </html>
