I think the only advantage is if you happen to love Java :P

Java does have all those handy built in libraries. Good for a lot of that graphical programming.
Logged

List of stuff I need to do before September:
1. Finish the Emulator of the Casio Prizm (in active development)
2. Finish the the SH3 asm IDE/assembler/linker program (in active development)
3. Create a partial Java virtual machine  for the Prizm (not started)
4. Create Axe for the Prizm with an Axe legacy mode (in planning phase)
5. Develop a large set of C and asm libraries for the Prizm (some progress)
6. Create an emulator of the 83+ for the Prizm (not started)
7. Create a well polished game that showcases the ability of the Casio Prizm (not started)

Woah nice Goplat! It would be nice to have something like Java on the Nspire, since a lot of people use it.

Hello,

I've working on a portable cldc JVM for some months now, part time of course.

Thanks to goplat, it will support jazelle on the nspire, now I know how to do that thanks to him. This was a known unknown, and now its a known known (sorry :D).

I have no release date since it's a big project and I'm busy, but I will let you know my progress here.

FYI, I can load classes from memory or file. When classes are in memory, I will be able to do XIP, ie, classes will not use more RAM if they're available from flash. The goal is to support the TI68K platform.

There is no JAR support for the moment, that's useless. I may add it in the future.

I'm working on threads, which means the stack and bytecode execution is not far away.

interesting, java on the nspire!  My firend actually was bullshitting me earlier this week saying he had a friend who could already send compiled .class files from comp to calc (Nspire of course) and run right after comp compiling.  Using TIconnect for the nspire non-84+ version: BS then.  But one day, it won't be!

Very nice! :D
Also, I would be interested in seeing Python and a GUI lib on TI-Nspire too! ;)

(Or better yet, Linux if we can do it!)

A bit unrelated, but C++ on nspire would get me to buy one! :D

Are you porting an existing VM or writing one from scratch?

BTW, there's a bit more to using Jazelle than what I used in the little demo program. I'll post what I know on Hackspire soon.

There is some info on Jazelle this thread, not sure how accurate/up-to-date it is.

i guess there's lots of advantages Java is newer. but also java is used on webplatforms as well as executable runtimes.

Don't forget everyone that Java compiles to bytecode, which is cross-compatible between ARM, x86, you name it. You just need the libraries (ie openGL() to get stuff to work.

much more doable than most, since it's both Open-source and scripted, not compiled
