Comment on New JDK 7 Feature: Support for Dynamically Typed Languages in the JVM

Comments

What is JDK 7? Yet another marketing buzzword? Would it happen to run on emerged ARM-based platforms? Netbooks? iPhone? Android? Symbian? Whatever?

Java Development Kit, let's you compile Java code to bytecode (As opposed to the JRE, Java Runtime Environment, which runs it).

It's cross platform and not a marketing buzzword at all.

Have you done this before?

1. cross which platform?

2. where I can get JRE for linux on ARM?

Please answer your questions and/or contribute code here: http://openjdk.java.net/

I hope Oracle will do it better. =)
