Java for the Amiga (redux).
Has anyone consider this for AmigaOS? The GNU Compiler for the Java.
Just curious. I assume it would be no small effort, but I wonder if it's also doable. Ed. |

Re: Java for the Amiga (redux).
Did anyone draw any conclusions about it?

Re: Java for the Amiga (redux).
As far as I know, the main reason we don't have Java on the Amiga already is that it is a huge effort to port the libraries. A compiler needs the libraries to do any useful work. Port the libraries and everything else should fall into place fairly quickly, even if the first version isn't perfect.

Re: Java for the Amiga (redux).
Wouldn't it be unbearably slow?

Re: Java for the Amiga (redux).
ISTR Holger Kruse, of Miami fame, having some kind of Java engine available a while back. Of course, there was an X-Windows server available as well. What ever happened to either of those?

Re: Java for the Amiga (redux).
It's a compiler, Moto, so it's only as slow as the system running it.

Re: Java for the Amiga (redux).
Oh ok. I thought it was a Java VM.
