  • 0

for a project that targets embedded systems (such as a NAS) I am looking for an embedded Java VM that would support Java 5 and up. Currently, Java 1.4 is supported by VM like IBM’s J9. But since Java 1.4 has reached its end-of-life I would be interested whether there are alternatives available, open source or commercially.

Any idea would help. Thanks.

    Yes, as can be seen on Sun’s Java Embeded downloads page: Java SE for Embedded Downloads. The blurb:

    Sun offers Java SE for Embedded
    products in both binary and source
    offerings under an innovative
    licensing model. Development is free,
    but royalties are required upon
    deployment on other than general
    purpose systems (for details see
    license). Platforms available for
    embedded use include not only standard
    Java SE platforms but also platforms
    that are exclusive for the embedded
    market. In all cases, the products
    offered are fully Java SE compliant —
    which enables you to reuse any Java
    code from other platforms or products
    without having to go through porting,
    recoding and test cycles.
