None that I know of.
How much work would it be?
Quite a bit, I guess. If you have an IDL compiler you can then go through every module and port it over, probably redesigning some parts of it.
The X.2 interface was designed such that a mapping of V2 -> X.2 is possible via wrapper functions. The fixed thread/task model can be emulated and ex-regs etc can be mapped as well. Main problem is the IDL compiler; not sure if Dice supports X.2... Ron?

Working on it, but that's currently not my main priority. (so the straight answer is: no, not yet.)

Hi,
Then, is it possible to use other compilers, for example ID4, with l4env?
Regards,
Wei
