It's hard to port libgcj to Cygwin (threading is just one issue), and I don't know what the current status is. Jon Beniston <jon AT sentinelware DOT freeserve DOT co DOT uk> was working on it, and at one point had a non-threaded version ported to Cygwin [1], but his last known URL http://www.cs.bris.ac.uk/~jb7216/libgcj/ seems to gone now. I don't do Java, and not familiar with the gory details on what needs to be done. [1] http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/java/1999-q3/msg00240.html Mumit
