Re: [dacapobench-researchers] Some thoughts on building DaCapo 12.x

[Eliot M. <mo...@cs...>]

Here's a wondering:

Would it be that much more complicated (or maybe this is
what is currently done) to have the notions of:

harness
benchmark
application library

where the libraries are things the benchmarks can choose to
use (i.e., to have on their class path)?  If a library is
used by only one benchmark, then it would not matter,
though it might be uniform to put a library in the library
group rather then the benchmark anyway.  But if a library
is used by two or more benchmarks, then you would save space.

If two benchmarks want different versions of the same library,
they could still include the library in the benchmark ...
