Really? How can I use JVM on iOS? Is there a good toolchain for Java -> native iOS?
- rbanffy 13y agoWe were talking about servers. A Java program can run on just about every server platform out there, from puniest Windows Server machines all the way to IBM's largest mainframe and Cray's larger supercomputer.
- chii 13y agosure there is - RoboVM just came out recently. In any case, JVM runs on more platforms than any others.
- bad_user 13y agoBesides RoboVM [1], there are also other solutions, like Codename One [2] that's based on XMLVM [3], or Avian [4] which is a new and very promising lightweight VM that can also compile code to native. And there's also J2ObcC [5] a compiler that's being developed and used by Google to share code between Android and iOS. You know, Java can be many things, but you can't beat its ecosystem ;-) [1] http://www.robovm.org/ http://www.robovm.org/ [2] http://www.codenameone.com/ http://www.codenameone.com/ [3] http://xmlvm.org/overview/ http://xmlvm.org/overview/ [4] http://oss.readytalk.com/avian/ http://oss.readytalk.com/avian/ [5] http://code.google.com/p/j2objc/ http://code.google.com/p/j2objc/
