See crash log:http://pastebin.com/xH3raY6V It works however with Roo version 1.1.5 and as late as with Roo1.2m1 (which is more or less the latest jdk1.5 compatible version). I'm not sure what the differences are really except that Roo versions around 1.2RC1 has jdk1.6 as minimum and 1.1.5 up to 1.2M1 have jdk 1.5 as a minimum. Which is why I now need openjdk or later for it now when Apples ppc jdk doesn't work anymore > > "fd" stays for "fast debug". If your software uses JNA, it will > probably crash. I don't think Spring Roo uses any JNA as it's a terminal only application. I'd love to be able to run Springsource Tol Suite on openjdk6 or 7, but I'd settle for Spring Roo 1.2RC1 for now. /MiB From digital.discuss at gmail.com Mon Dec 12 13:18:32 2011 From: digital.discuss at gmail.com (MiB) Date: Mon, 12 Dec 2011 22:18:32 +0100 Subject: OpenJDK 6 or 7 PowerPC build on OS X Leopard In-Reply-To: References: <0771F3B0-9255-4400-9701-C286E902947D@gmail.com> <712691323626716@web75.yandex.ru> Message-ID: <519BD5F6-8A2E-4C4E-B8B2-2192404749E8@gmail.com> 11 dec 2011 20.28 MiB wrote: > > 11 dec 2011 19.05 Konstantin Tokarev SAID: >> >> You can find working builds of OpenJDK 7 for Mac/PPC is here: >> >> http://www.intricatesoftware.com/OpenJDK/macppc/ > > Yes, the latest I tried of these, openjdk7-macppc-fcs-fd- > atomic-2011-09-12 does not work at all with Roo 1.2.

It went quite well producing a runnable version of Spring Roo after I hacked around a problem. Unfortunately this problem with what I believe to be a crash when using the String class occured. At least the test for one important Spring Roo class crashes in String when attempting to turn a String buffer with the chars in "[DefaultMetadataService at 1b6d56]" to a String with the toString method. I will post the details later for the code that causes the crash. The generated VM error message says: "fatal error: caught unhandled signal 10 at address 0x8". Complete VM error log at . Any ideas? Konstantin, is your source for this openjdk7 version available in some form? It would be interesting to make a version on my machine. Can I help in some way to find out if this compile problem is because of openjdk or something else? I must say the results are promising at least. you have done a very good job with this version.

Thank you! I realize this now possibly should have been addressed to Kurt Miller.
