Hi,

the new TYA JIT compiler version 1.5 is ready for
download at URL:

ftp://gonzalez.cyberus.ca/pub/Linux/java/tya15.tgz

(size is 139157)

The problem @gonzalez site is solved due the great work 
of Neal Sanche, so please let me say a big Thank You to him!!


And now some TYA release notes:

* This release fixes some bugs of v1.4.2 (look ChangeLog file).
* This release adds a more compatible class access mechanism
  on JDK1.2, so demo/test/InitTest.java is passed for the first
  time. At beginning this looks unimportant, but it is essential
  enough! There is software out there which will run the first
  time together with TYA (- but only on JDK1.2).
* This release adds a lot of special error tests. This can
  be checked by switching #define EXT_ERR.
	   
BTW, InitTest.java was the file Artur (tnx!) sent me a year ago, 
you see: sometimes it takes somewhat more time to find a solution....


At last a word to your newbies: TYA is a JIT compiler add on
to the blackdown port of JDK, but written without any source code
access to JDK. TYA is suitable to JDK1.1 and 1.2 (1.02 is no more
supported). TYA is distributed under terms of GPL in source code
but compilation should not be a problem. (Hint: keep versions
compiled for 1.1 and for 1.2 pretty separate.)

Cheers,
Albrecht
