When people call .class files portable, they mean between platforms that have a JVM available and can pass the TCK.
Platforms that do not aim to do that are not really relevant.
- kllrnohj 6y agoThat's like saying C++ exe's are portable if you just ignore all platforms that don't have an NT kernel. Market share determines a platform's relevance to portability claims, not its intention towards the JVM.
- jacques_chester 6y agoI see that your goalposts in this discussion are also highly portable.
