java.lang 1.2 updates

[Mark Wielaard]

Hi,

Here are some updates to java.lang.System,Package,ClassLoader.

2001-01-08  Mark Wielaard  <address@hidden>
    * java/lang/ClassLoader.java: 1.2 updates
    (definedPackages, parent, systemClassLoader): new private fields
    (ClassLoader): new constructor that takes a parent classloader
    (definePackage, getPackage, getPackages): new protected methods
    * java/lang/Package.java: 1.2 updates
    (Package): change argument order to match ClassLoader.definePackage(),
    throw NullPointerException when name == null
    (getPackage, getPackages): implemented
    * java/lang/Sysem.java: 1.2 updates
    (setProperty): new method
    (runFinalizersOnExit): deprecated

Although there is now a ClassLoader constructor that takes a parent argument
this does not make the classloading 1.2 compatible. I have some ideas and
code for that but it needs native support and I have to think a bit more
about it.

Cheers,

Mark
