Maybe desktop applications will see something like what Android does, wrt shipping applications as bytecode and doing the last stages of compilation on the device, to get uarch-specific optimizations. CPU upgrades potentially being traumatic would be a downside, of course...
- gruez 6y agoWe already have that, at least on windows with .net. Only problem is that there's still native applications around for whatever reason. Even android apks can contain native libraries.
- remexre 6y agoDoes that do AoT-compiling-on-install, or is it still just JIT? I thought the JVM ecosystem was ahead on purely static binaries with Graal, but I might be mistaken.
