[Fwd: Re: Enhance footprint for array initialization]

[Ulf Zibis]

Hi all,

I had just opened a thread, about class file footprint, and the result 
was, that there is some need, to enhance it's format for array 
initialization using the constant pool:
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/hotspot-dev/2008-September/000600.html

 From Patrick Wright I got the hint, to send you a copy of this 
discussion, because you would be "pretty open to hearing requests/ideas 
for enhancements to the JVM
itself". ;-)
... so here I am. 8-)

Regards,
Ulf

Hi Ulf

You might try re-posting on the DaVinci Machine mailing list. They are
pretty open to hearing requests/ideas for enhancements to the JVM
itself.

http://mail.openjdk.java.net/mailman/listinfo/mlvm-dev

Currently they are focused on dynamic language support (the
invoke-dynamic bytecode), but at the very least you'll probably get a
detailed response from a senior HotSpot engineer about the
possibilities.

Good luck!
Patrick
