@chris: Yes, its something like this I'm thinking of doing. And with your implementation, my assumptions of the functionality seems correct. Thanks! I don't want to emulate the exact behavior of mmap per se, but rather find a way to implement java.nio.MappedByteBuffer . The reference implementation ...

Yes, one of the arguments to the open method is just that: read or read/write. So I'm thinking it'd be possible to at least support read only. And perhaps even do some sort of partial write support. It is stated in the docs that the functionality can have undefined results if the file is written to ...

I need to implement an Amiga version of mmap, i.e. read in a potentially huge file to memory, and use it as a chunk of memory. To quote the docs: "A direct byte buffer whose content is a memory-mapped region of a file." This is for Java, i.e. Jamiga, and the java.nio.MappedByteBuffer class...

I don't have much application library knowledge, so I don't know which six types there are. But, if I'm allowed to elaborate, I'm thinking one might want to support more types in the future. Therefore I think that an attribute would be better suited... Although, on the other hand, we'd get a less &q...

Yes, I've experienced that. I think it's due to a corrupt gui.prefs file, if I'm not mistaken. There should be a thread on it somewhere here. The fix is to remove the faulty gui.prefs and re-create te settings. I think a simple re-save wasn't enough.

To me, setting -DDEPRECATED= is a hack/workaround and not an elegant solution. An elegant solution is adding a new define that actually does what it says, e.g. -D__NO_DEPRECATED__ to skip deprecated warnings. Wouldn't "NO DEPRECATED" mean that no deprecated functions should be used, i.e. ...

Great questions, great answers! Cleared out how things works.
Should be put in the wiki.

I was resurrecting an old project, which used application library interface v 1, and libauto, and this problem dawned upon me -- not in compile time, but in runtime! I see and hear what you're saying about not using libauto, since you loose control over the versions. But in my honest opinion this ra...
