Why no one asks questions that show deep understanding of the work and not technical details that can be googled in a second.
Like - can you land Curiosity with off the shelf java and JVM? Why or why not?
- chrisbennet 14y ago"Land it? Yes. Successfully? Not so much..."
- err 14y agoWelcome aboard!
- amalcon 14y agoHah, now you've got me thinking about how one might technically satisfy that requirement. None of the possibilities I've come up with are good ideas.
- koide 14y agoYou will very likely need real time guarantees the JVM does not provide. (The "off the shelf" bit's a hint)
- amalcon 14y agoAbsolutely correct. I was thinking of things along the lines of "use JDK 1.2, which still lets you turn off the garbage collector, and then spend 100% of your time after startup in a JNI module." That's the least scary version.
- dllthomas 14y agoWhat about "Use java code to output C code; compile C code; run C code."?
