NAME

       binfmtgcj-interpreter - binfmt_misc gcj handler

SYNOPSIS

       binfmtgcj-interpreter GCJ-java-source-file-name [command-line opions ...]

DESCRIPTION

       binfmtgcj-interpreter compiles a Java source file specified on the command-line using the GCJ compiler, and executes the resulting file.

       It  is  designed  to be used as a handler for binfmt_misc handler, which is a system used in Linux for handling arbitrary files as executa-
       bles.

       The command-line options are passed on to the compiled binary.

FILE MAGIC

       There is a requirement for C source files to have the magic characters //BINFMTGCJ: at the beginning of the file.

       That line also is used to specify the additional command-line options for C compiler.

	      enables debug output if set.

       BINFMTC_GCJ_OPTS
	      Additional GCJ options.  Use BINFMTC_DEBUG to verify the options being passed on to gcc.
