jamvm

[JosAH]

Recently a new version of jamvm has been released (also for the MIPS processor family); this version supports version 1.6, 1.7 and even the latest version of Java, version 1.8; it also doesn't depend on GNU's 'classpath' version of the core classes anymore (which is quite buggy). The OpenJDK version of the core classes is a direct branch of the original Sun/Oracle (reference) implementation, which makes jamvm a full, complete Java JRE implementation (it even has JDK capabilities; e.g. the Java compiler itself is part of the core classes).

Will this jamvm (version 2.0) be available for the Yun? And, if so, when?

kind regards,

Jos

ps. I'm sorry that I can't build this version myself because my Linux (Mint) box is severely broken ...

(I also replied in the forums); I ran the new JVM the entire afternoon with my own application without any problems. I already had the old gnu 'classpath' classes installed. You're gold if you manage to port the jamvm configuration for the OpenJDK classes (implementing the latest version of the JRE).

kind regards,
