I just want to explain to everyone, why it is that some of you may have had problems with the plugin freezing while loading.
I have currently been building the newest LateralGM jars targeting Java 7. When I made this change several months ago, the compilation speeds of LateralGM and its general performance drastically improved. But a new issue arose.
You see we use JNA which is a noobs wrapper to JNI for goobers too lazy to do shit themselves. JNA is used for native callbacks to our compiler library, or compileEGMf, extension may vary depending on platform. This means when I have been compiling LGM for 1.7 the boobs on 1.6 and 1.5 have been running into a freeze at plugin loading, for whatever reason, by they a macfag on an OS that can't even handle running the correct Java version, and no I don't mean PowerPC's, I mean MacOS Lion, gregfags computer.
I will from now on target Java 6 when compiling LGM, but no lower, as I do not want to force the slow lagginess of Java 5 back onto everyone.
