I believe that is how .NET works (the byte code gets distributed, and the user compiles it to native immidietly before execution).
Also, Android's ART is the replacement for Dalvik that compiles Dalvik bytecode into native code at installation.
- jayd16 9y agoActually, ART is now "JIT guided AOT." The JIT will (re)compile code as needed but the JIT code is stored to disk, thus creating an AOT binary on future runs.
