Re: GCJ Compile Error SQLite JDBC

Dear Nektarios,

Actually i never want to compile sqlitejdbc jar files, but unless i do that i wont be able to use it from my gcj compiled java code >.<
so here is what happened :
1. write a program in java... uses the sqlite jdbc....
2. everything works perfectly... no problem whatsoever...
3. try to compile the written java program into native by using gcj. now, i cant make my gcj compiled java program to work properly unless i also compile the sqlitejdbc jar file
4. puff.... problem occured because i cant compile sqlitejdbc jar file with gcj hence my gcj compiled java program wont work too 

or do you have any other alternative ? perhaps by using a non pure java jdbc of sqlite?


Thanks a lot for your help :)

Cheers and God Bless,

Chowi

sqlitejdbc does this in order to provide a cross-platform (pure Java) sqlite 
jdbc driver. If one plans to compile the resulting jarfile with gcj there is no 
need to do this trick in the first place.

sqlitejdbc provides a build option not to include the MIPS emulator and use JNI 
to access the native compiled sqlite library.

However, I never tried to use the resulting jarfile + native library with gcj.

ok, but IMHO there is no need to compile this jar file with gcj ;-)
