Does JikesRVM support the new Java memory model?

It seems that the new java memory model has been proposed for several years. I am wondering whether the latest JikesRVM supports such as the new semantic of "volatile".

Thanks for your further reply.

Regards,
Xinwei

We've been thinking about implementing this.

Do you have a specific program that isn't working correctly due to a  
lack of JMM support, or are you interested in this feature in general?

Hi Filip,

Thanks for your reply.
As I need to implement a datarace detector that is very sensitive to the volatile variables in JikesRVM. I was trying to find out whether it fulfills the specification of the new JMM in JikesRVM, however failed. As JikesRVM use progressive optimization, I'd like to know whether it violates those semantics. It seems that JikesRVM builds on Java 5 technology apparently, however I haven't found any documents explaining how the semantic works in JikesRVM.

The application seems tricky to build.

Regards,
Xinwei
