This project is an implementation of a JVM in JavaScript. At the
|
|
|
|
|
moment it runs Java code, but is more like a proof of concept than a
|
|
|
|
|
real JVM. A lot of work is required to make this JVM run Java code
|
|
|
|
|
(including writing an entire runtime enviroment).

BicaVM can interpret a big chunk of the JVM's bytecode (probably around
|
|
|
|
|
60%). However, it is wildy incomplete. It has a JNI interface that maps to
|
2011-11-10 23:31:33 +00:00
|
|
|
JavaScript functions. It has no JIT compilation.
