/* jband - 10/26/98 - */
js/jsd contains code for debugging support for the C-based JavaScript engine
in js/src.
Currently the makefiles are for Win32 only (using MS nmake.exe from MSDEV 4.2).
jsd.mak will build a standalone dll. jsdshell.mak will build the dll and also
a version of the js/src/js.c shell which will launch a Java VM and run the
JavaSript Debugger (built in js/jsdj). This version assumes that you have a
JRE compatible JVM installed. Only Windows is supported for this Java-based
debugging.
The makefile assumes that the jdk/include directory is part of the path
in your 'include' environment variable so that is can find jni.h.
Though only Windows makefiles are supplied, the basic code in js/jsd should
compile for other platforms -- it is a newer version of code that builds and
ships with Communicator 4.x on many platforms.
js/jsd/jsdb is a console debugger using only native code (see README in that
directory)
