What about including java into gcc? Or making a extra package to add java support in gcc?
I'm a big java user and fan, but I need a tue compiler...

ah, whats wrong with the j2sdk package? The compiler seems fast enough to me (i'd classify myself as intermediate, but I've played with a couple other compilers and I don't notice a difference.)
I'll play around with this when I get back home though.
PS - one more person who uses java and arch - we need a java forum!!!

yes, but let's call it codeunderarch so that not only java can be the subject

Yes, but I need to make some true binary. I mean, j2sdk can make pretty good bytecode, which can be run with java interpreter. But I need a compiler which can make standalone application, like gcj does.

What do you think? I'll make a package in a little (or try at least, I didn't look at it much).

good luck - keep posting what you tried; people around can help

I had a package for GCC 3.3 but haven't build one yet for 3.4
It's very very promising, though it is still sort of a wrapper ...
apt-get install arch

Couldn't we provide the regular gcc as the distro default but provide a gcc+f77 or a gcc-java that replaces the default gcc? Using the "replaces=" in the PKGBUILD? I suppose you'd need a virtual dependency "compiler" or something like that. Then those who want their pet language can have it. Or is it too involved?

that was what i did to have r on my machine before f2c came ... the thing is that a gcc with f77 enabled is telling pkgs you built against sometimes that they can use f77 .... so you have to make pkgs you compile with gccf77 depended on it and not on gcc :-(
the idea is to make gcc with and without f77 and then take the diff and make a pkg out of it, but no time now to play with such things - if anyone want to try, would be great

Ah yes. Does the main gcc binary change depending on the languages included though? Is gcc(c,c++) vs gcc(c,c++,f77) different?

no, i dont think so, but pkgs built with gcc(c,c++,f77) may need gcc(c,c++,f77) to work --- but if you build them with gcc(c,c++) then they work also only with gcc(c,c++) ... not all, but some - that's why a gcc-f77 pkg is the best way (besides messing with gcc :-) )
