Yep!
Even Java is used in the embedded world today (luckily not my world).
Simply, C and Forth can scale down to really small MCU with few hundreds bytes of code space and some bytes of RAM (with Forth, on such small target you will probably loose REPL).
A readily available OSS Forth I really like can be used on small MSP430 where no lisp or scheme can go! (www.camelforth.com)
Currently most embbeddable scheme I know is the Armpit http://armpit.sourceforge.net/ http://armpit.sourceforge.net/
- mahmud 16y agoJava was designed as an embedded language for a set-top box.
- pietrofmaggi 16y agoTrue, but that was oak (oak 0.2 langage spec is here https://duke.dev.java.net/green/OakSpec0.2.ps https://duke.dev.java.net/green/OakSpec0.2.ps). BTW this specs put some lights on some java behavior: http://www.devx.com/Java/Article/10686 http://www.devx.com/Java/Article/10686.
