What devices will run Java bytecode?

Jul 27, 2005 14 Replies

I'd like to design some software in java and have it work, without any headaches, on a portable device (I'm envisioning a palm pilot, Ipod, Cell phone,. the playstation thing . . or something similar)



I can't seem to find a list of devices which take bytecode. I imagine I would be doing mostly text based stuff.

The devices themselves won't take bytecode directly, you still need a JVM (java virtual machine) bytecode interpreter or JIT (just in time) bytecode compiler for your target system.

I know it's available for the Palm Pilot.

Well they don't have to be slow!

Sun used to make a Java chip. I don't know what happened to that.

Generally your write a Java interpreter or a Just-In-Time Compiler for the platform you are running on. For smaller, embedded platforms you might want to look into J2ME.

JStamp?

I can't name a whole bunch of them but I've used JStamp and its pretty easy. I never benchmarked it, but at 74 Mhz it is pretty fast.

Well . .. maybe everything is relative.

I'm just imagining encrypting or dycrypting with a 4096 bit PGP key

LOL

I obviously don't know enough about java to write to right questions.

Mummm, it was a really stupid idea ?

ARM now has Jazelle, which defines a Java-compatible instruction set and allows for a Java co-processor.

Hello,

For an embedded Java application you need stick with J2ME.

The JOP is a bytecode execution w/o OS on an FPGA.

A nice design and fast, but requires some understanding of hardware and the tools and hardware extensions are limited.

A lot of the ARM core devices run a Linux 2.6 and this allows you to have a JVM working. Some link were already posted, but I do like the

Very cheap and huge community behind it. For a $100 dollar you get a XScale preconfigured and lots of extendable hardware.

What kind of application do you intend?
