I just tried that and it seems to run with Kissme.
But gij gave the following exception:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: The SHA algorithm
was not found to use in computing the Serial Version UID for class
java.awt.CardLayout
   at net.wuffies.japi.JodeClass.getSerialVersionUID() (Unknown Source)

I might have a fix for that from Raif Naffah that I will try tomorrow.
(It is already in my Classpath tree so that might explain why Kissme
doesn't suffer from it).

The only cotcha with compiling is the referencee to
org.omg.CORBA.BAD_OPERATION in JapiSerialize which seems to be save to
comment out.

Compiling with gcj to a native executable failed since the jode jar
references some javax.swing classes. Will try to get the sources of jode
later to see if they can be stripped out easily since they don't seem to
be used during runtime anyway.

Kissme did throw a OutOfMemoryError when trying all the java. packages.
But taking a smaller subset seems to work fine. Do you have a japize
example classes/arguments/output file to which I can compare my results?

Cheers,
