GCJ crashes when trying to compile Hello World.... I would consider this a
"BAD"....

Comment 2 Jakub Jelinek 2001-04-30 18:22:24 UTC
Can you please be a little bit more specific?
I've tried
gcj -O2 -fmain=hello hello.java -o hello
./hello
and it worked just fine, similarly with a couple of other options
(-O0, -O2 -mcpu=i686, etc.),
gcj -C hello.java
does not crash either.

Comment 3 Olivier Crête 2001-04-30 18:30:35 UTC
Ahh, I didnt know about the -fmain= parameter....

What I did was...

[Tester@TesterBox Tester]$ gcj hello.java -o hello
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/2.96/../../../crt1.o: In function `_start':
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/2.96/../../../crt1.o(.text+0x18): undefined
reference to `main'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

The error message is not very informative to say the least...
