Isn't GCJ obsolete and dead?
1 comments

It is obsolete as most of its devs moved on to other stuff.

But the gcc folks keep it alive, because many of the gcj unit tests stress parts of the toolchain that other languages don't use.

So I imagine that for quick command line scripts that can live with an aged Java 1.4 API it might still work.
