I'm a developer of cachewolf, a universalv tool for geocaching. We are now using Ewe( http://www.ewesoft.com/ ) in order to have Cachewolf running on all available platforms (Windows Desktop, Windows Mobile, Linux, mirBSD). We always have strong performance issues and would be very happy to have a VM that uses JIT. Pfeffer. What do you think: It is possible to cross-compile for Windows Mobile?

Is there any chance of seeing a JavaSE for a Windows CE (PDA) platform? Great news.

It presents you native ARM environment (with all native binaries, libs, uname printouts, etc.), while relaying heavy compilations to the cross-compiler on your powerful x86 host. Should probably save you from a lot of your tweaks. Why not use Scratchbox(.org) for your cross-compilation ?

I look forward to learning more about the excellent work you've been doing. Well Done!

We certainly want to make this work out of the box. What version of IcedTea did you use? I think some issues have changed/been fixed. Certainly --with-openjdk-src-dir isn't broken any more :) Great news! We certainly want to make this work out of the box. What version of IcedTea did you use?

I think I have to read it a few more times to get many of your points. One thing ~ most of the screenshot image links are broken... Hi Robert, great post!

Your combined effort have provided the key to unlock the possibility to run OpenJDK on all embedded Linux NAS storage devices, home routers and more :) Fantastic! Cheers This is a great month!

Very impressive! And indeed, it was a long and twisted road to get free java everywhere, but it seems we really are there now. Thanks! If there are any reusable patches for icedtea, please do post them to the mailinglist and we make sure they get integrated: http://mail.openjdk.java.net/mailman/listinfo/distro-pkg-dev Another request, could you change the image links to http from https. It helps when your post is integrated into various planets (either broken images or big warnings about secure content inside unsecured content). Finally, do you have any speed comparisons of the hotspot/zero and cacao on arm? Wow! Very impressive!
