Don't know if this is the preferred forum - guess I'll find out. Are there any plans for a Java VM, and if so what are they?

TIA

This forum works for me

we need java

I was heard about java for MorphOS...

A JVM is currently being written from scratch : JAmiga.

http://www.jamiga.org

The project is still alive and active.

We are milles away to have this GUY. jamiga is just borning now and there's a lot of work to do this.
We cant forget the fact this GUI is 3D hardware accelerated.

The sourcecode for Suns JDK/JRE are available from their website (free registration required). It of course needs a lot of work to compile on a new platform such as MorphOS. The thing is, someone could invest money in a project to have it ported. The FreeBSD-people ported it themselves and has now gotten it officially approved by Sun as it has been successfully tested with their test-suite (which means that it should fully support all Java 1.4.1 features). This was done mostly with GCC 2.95 so it should be doable on MorphOS as well.

as i recall genesi has someone working on java for morohos as we speek.......but that is jsut a memory....i could be wrong

What is the status of the Q-Box? I've hunted around but it doesn't seem like it exists yet. Is it ever going to?

I'm trying to look at the whole package.

I like the hardware and Morphos seems interesting. But (sorry to break it to) A-box ain't gonna do it. Don't get me wrong, I like Amiga. I could see at the time it was superior but ended up with a wintel. At the time it was pretty hot... 386 20mhz. With a turbo switch. But that was a LONG LONG time ago! So (blasphemy ahead) forget the Amiga.

So maybe I'll get a Pegasos and run linux. But
I have to say I'm smitten with the UI. Gotta have it!

Ambient is just stunning. And if it's as responsive as what I've read....

So what's the deal with Q-Box? Or any other box?

Kind regards
