Re: [javaCompiler-users] Compiler "Install"

[xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx x. <hul...@ya...>]

Hi,

thanks for the quick answer.
I'm pretty sure that the problem I've got is to do with the GUI frontend. The compiler binaries all seem to work (did a few manual test compilations).

The problem is that the GUI just won't appear when I try to start the JavaNativeCompiler nor will I get any sort of feedback at all. I'm using Windows XP Home. 
Apart from the obvious double-clicking on it, I also tried to get it to go via the standard windows command/cygwin bash shells, so I haven't tried any fancy workarounds yet. (whether I just download the GUI frontend or also unpack the compilers into right directory doesn't make any difference to that) 
 
As for the AutoCompiler: When I start it via a shell (otherwise I just get a shell that pops up and immediately disappears), I get the following message:
"
Exception during runtime initialisation

This application has requested the runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. 
Please contact the application's support team for more information
"

Once I get the GUI to work, I reckon the rest should take care of itself. I could probably just use the compilers manually, but I might get conflicting CLASSPATH problems if I keep my standard gcj etc. in there as well, which I would quite like to. 
Thanks again
  Peter
