Oh, I'm sorry, I think see what you mean. If a VM would take a binary GNU Classpath jar, it wouldn't be able to override the value of the flag. Is this an important scenario? I thought you long haired types didn't like binary distributions ;-)
OK now I get it too... I call this idea of imposing VM-specific versions of a class in front of the stock Classpath versions "overlaying" instead of "overriding" to avoid confusion :-) Yes, I think not breaking "overlaying" is important.. so a static method (with comment why being used) would be better. -Archie __________________________________________________________________________ Archie Cobbs * CTO, Awarix * http://www.awarix.com
