JavaVM for AmigaOS4
« on: January 16, 2003, 01:58:28 AM »
It sounds like lots of people would like an JavaVM for AmigaOS 4.x ...

So why not use one of the ones that have worked before?

Kaffe has worked before ... so why not port the new versions???

It sould be posible, as it was before.

We could also be able to use Classpath, so we don't need Sun's proprietary class libraries :-D

There are also some other OpenSource JavaVM's out there, kissme should also work on PPC (don't know, didn't have time to find out, but there was no x86 ONLY sign)

I hope there will help some of the desperate minds ;-)

PS: replace http:// with ftp:// in the links to GeekGadgets!
Best regards,

ok, I had a close look at this site, and it looks like Kaffe is slow as hell (still better than nothing) and kissme is only for x86 ... but it would still be nice if Kaffe would run native on AmigaOS 4.0 :-D

Or what about this one ... there has been no Amiga-port, but it's for PPC :-D

Still Kaffe would be nice ;-)

I would like to give it a try, but I first need to get AmigaOS 4.0 (and off course a computer able to run AmigaOS 4.0).

Kaffe from GeekGadgets should still work, it's old, so it will not run all the "new" content ;-)
