Tizen and B2G support for JOGL 2.0?

Hi

Tizen and Boot To Gecko are 2 GNU Linux-based operating systems for smartphones and tablets. Both projects are very young. I have recently contacted a Mozilla engineer to know whether we could install Java SE For Embedded or OpenJDK for ARM on Boot To Gecko. Would it be possible to use JOGL 2.0 under such an operating system with a real JVM instead of Android DVM? Best regards.

I currently work on linux-armv7 (ubuntu 11.10) using Omap4 (pandaboard)
and Tegra2 (AC100, ..).

Result today/tomorrow should be a new node to jenkins
so we have automated builds and can deploy the binaries as usual.

You can see this work already in the git repo, where we make a decision
whether a GL profile has a hardware or software rasterizer.

All GlueGen unit tests have been passed already
using cross compilation and remote unit tests via ssh/rsync.

I currently fine tune JOGL unit tests and make them a bit more tolerant,
so we don't see just tons failures :)

After all of that, we should be fine AFAIK.

Xerxes is also testing the ARM platforms a lot (using JOGL)
as he is involved with the OpenJDK zero/jit ARM assembler code.

So support for regular Linux ARM is on the very way :)
