AFAIK, Sun just hadn't gotten around to it yet; don't know if it's in JRE 7 or not. Class sharing is primarily of interest in environments where startup time is critical, and Sun didn't think that the server JVM would be subject to that issue. However, with more and more 64-bit environments being available (eg, everybody's laptops) that have only a server JVM on them, that decision looks like it's no longer valid. Note that the client and server JVMs are really two entirely different beasts, so the data structures from one are not easily translated to the other. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
