Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : jasmin or jasmin-sable Version : 1.06 or 1.2 Upstream Author : Jonathan Meyer * URL : http://mrl.nyu.edu/~meyer/jasmin/ URL alt : http://www.sable.mcgill.ca/software/#soot * License : GPL2 or LGPL Description : java assembler compiler
Jasmin is a Java ASseMbler INterface. It takes ASCII descriptions for Java classes, written in a simple assembler-like syntax and using the Java Virtual Machine instruction set. It converts them into binary Java class files suitable for loading into a JVM implementation. For the ones wondering why the info above ITP looks so strange: there exists the original jasmin, GPLed, and more actively maintained jasmin-sable, which is LGPLed (was relicensed at some point by the original author). There are some issues that I am trying to clear out now, so cannot say which version will eventually be packaged. PS: Bcc:ing d-d directly as Evo doesn't allow me to add headers :-( -- Grzegorz B.
