[rvm-research] some beginner's questions

Hi everybody, 

Firstly, sorry if the questions I'm about to ask shouldn't be sent to this list.

Well, I'm completely new (beginner) in the inner workings of the jikes rvm. Therefore, I'd like to know what books do you guys recommend me in order to get an overview of this subject? Would The `Java Virtual Machine Specification (Lindholm and Yellin book)` be of great help? 
(I've already bought Programming for the Java(TM) Virtual Machine by Joshua Engel).

I also world like to know: is it possible to install jikesrmv-3.1.0 on OSX (intel)? If it is possible, what is the simplest way to do it?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Humberto,

As to the latter question: yes.  Here's what works for me:

untar the jikesrvm package
then in the jikesrvm-3.1.0 directory:

$ bin/buildit -t dacapo localhost production -p

This will build the profiled production configuration in your current  
directory; the rvm executable will be found in jikesrvm-3.1.0/dist/
production_ia32-osx/rvm.

This should just work provided that you have the Apple development  
tools installed.

-Filip

For Jikes RVM internals, I'd start with the user guide and/or recommend reading.  You can find both at jikesrvm.org.

I'll go with the user guide then. I guess I'll read the code as I go through the guide.

Grove, thanks for the advice.
