[jira] Commented: (HARMONY-1084) Patches to move up to 5.0, and use new IBM VME

    [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HARMONY-1084?page=comments#action_12426623 ] 
            
Tim Ellison commented on HARMONY-1084:
--------------------------------------

Oliver,

Applied the class lib update to the repository at repo revision r429714.

The Eclipse plug-in update is still outstanding (my install fails to build any plug-in properly at the moment).

Please check that the classlib patch was applied correctly.

> This JIRA will contain the patches required to use the new IBM VME, as announced on the dev list.
> VME4.classlib.update.diff will contain all the classlib updates required, which consist of:
>  - Change Java build target from jsr14 to 1.5
>  - Change the bootclasspath system property name from com.ibm.oti.system.class.path to org.apache.harmony.boot.class.path
>  - Create a new org.apache.harmony.luni.platform.Environment class that contains two (currently stubbed) getenv() methods. Once these methods are implemented, VM writers will be able to redirect System.getenv() calls to this class.
>  - Rename clearvm.dll/libclearvm.so to harmonyvm.dll/libharmonyvm.so, and update the launchers reference to this library.
>  - Update tests.api.java.lang.reflect.ArrayTest and tests.api.java.lang.ThreadGroupTest to reflect changes between 1.4 and 5.0 behaviour.
> VME4.eclipse.plugin.update.diff will contain all the Eclipse plugin updates required, which consist of:
>  - Rename clearvm.properties to harmonyvm.properties, and update the Eclipse plugin to find this file.
> Please do not apply these patches until the new VME is available for download. I will announce this to the list at the appropriate time.
