Java for my AXIM

[papo]

I have posted this on the AXIM forum , but i guess here is the most appropriate place!
I am trying to find a Java JVM for my AXIM
Some users have indicated me Jeode (its not free) and another 3rd party!
Does anyone use anything from SUN, a made a small research and still the Personal Java VM does not support ARM...any tips

thank you for your time

(moderators , I am not double posting i just did not know that I could post here)

I've been looking around for Java for iPaq, and what i post here is from that knowledge. I'm quite a novice too, so don't believe all I say :?


J2SE on pda devices:

a) You install Linux on your pda (maybe you can run a Familiar or Intimate distribution, check www.handhelds.org for info on Linux)
and then you look for blackdown jvm, www.blackdown.org. Follow instructions on those websites, i don't know anything about AXIM.

b) You buy a HP iPaq series 3600, 3700 or 3800 and an OS called SavaJe from mochaworks www.mochaworks.com. Be careful though!
Their new version will not support J2SE and the first release will only run on iPaq 5400 series.


J2ME or personal Java

There are several JVMs under GPL, (general public license), and probably a few commersial ones. The ones I know of (commersial) are called
Creme and Jeode and are released for several systems.

Good Luck!

You could give http://www.skelmir.com/ceej/handheld/index.html a shot. If you try it, let us know how it works out.

I'll try it...
If it's faster with awt than Jeode and CrE-me you just saved me from trying swt.
The Download page is down rigt now though so we'll just have to sit back and wait for it to come up again.

Skelmir appears to move more towards the Phone market. I suggest you read carefully before you decide to use it.
Good luck!

I reccommend the following links:

http://www.comp.lancs.ac.uk/computing/users/fittond/ppcjava.html
http://www.superwaba.com.br

SuperWaba works great, and it is FREE unlike other VMs which have expensive and sometimes restrictive licensing. Ewe VM works well too.

Waba is NOT java.

following quoted from Waba website linked above:


Is Waba an implementation of Java?
No. Java is a trademark of Sun Microsystems and it defines a programming platform including a language, virtual machine, class file format and set of classes.

Waba is its own programming platform including a language, virtual machine, class file format and set of base classes.

Because of the way Waba was designed, developers can use Java development tools to write Waba programs and Waba programs can run as Java applets or applications with no native code.

Waba applications can run under Java but, for the most part, Java programs that use the Java Class Libraries can't run under Waba.


end of quote.
Hence (in most cases) you can NOT run programs written in Java on the Waba VM, as stated above. I stick with J9, but there seems to be some trouble with getting the RMI things to work on it =\
