[maemo-developers] J2ME on Nokia 770

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,
     I sent this on another list and forgot to CC this one...

For the choice of VM I would recommend SableVM, as with its recent
refactoring I built it down to 220 K on Intel with gcc -Os etc.

Check out SableVM at www.sablevm.org.

We at Gatespace are the people behind Knopflerfish OSGI. I test-drove
Knopflerfish's test suite with JamVM and SableVM (both use Classpath),
the results were the same, and the speed was comparable. Haven't
measured memory consumption yet. We target CDC, so our constraints with
respect to that are less strict.

Classpath's AWT of course runs on top of GTK+.

I argue for Sable instead of Jam because:

- Sable has a large and active community
- Sable is LGPL. GPL does not work for maemo. Read why at
http://sablevm.org/wiki/License_FAQ.
- Sable has an almost complete JIT compiler.

Someone needs to put in a build option to Classpath to make it build
CLDC only, or any other profile.

As for the MIDP implementation, someone is working on it (announced on
the wishlist).
