Description-en: Java runtime environment using GIJ/Classpath
GIJ is a Java bytecode interpreter, not limited to interpreting bytecode.
It includes a class loader which can dynamically load shared objects, so
it is possible to give it the name of a class which has been compiled and
put into a shared library on the class path.
.
This is currently an empty package.
It is meant to provide a Java-RTE-like interface to the GIJ/GCJ tool set.
