Topic: Java Intermediate Language


  
  Intermediate language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A variation in the meaning of this term, is those languages used as an intermediate language by some high-level programming languages which do not output object or machine code, but output the intermediate language only, to submit to a compiler for such language, which then outputs finished object or machine code.
Languages used for this fall in complexity between high-level languages and low-level languages, such as assembly languages.
C is used as an intermediate language by numerous programming languages including Eiffel, Sather, and Esterel.

 Java programming language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Unlike conventional languages which are generally designed to be compiled to native code, Java is compiled to a bytecode which is then run (generally using JIT compilation) by a Java virtual machine.
Java servlets are server-side Java EE components that generate responses to requests from clients.
Java libraries that are the compiled byte codes of source code developed by the JRE implementor to support application development in Java.

 Java Intermediate Language   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
The Java Intermediate Language (JIL) is a subset of XML and SGML.
Its goal is to provide an intermediate representation of Java source code suitable for machine use.
JIL benefits from the features of XML, such as extensibility and portability, while providing a common ground for software tools.

Java is an object-oriented programming language developed initially by James Gosling and colleagues at Sun Microsystems.
The Java platform and language began as an internal project at Sun Microsystems in the December 1990 timeframe.
Java 1.0a was made available for download in 1994, but the first public release of Java and the HotJava web browser came on May 23, 1995, at the SunWorld conference.

 Microsoft Java
Java, on the other hand, was intended to remain separate, retain its special integrity, and even advocated a slogan of "100% Pure." Each side could plausibly view its own position as enlightened.
Java's contribution was to combine and use these technologies in a new way and demonstrate their ability to solve new problems introduced by the Internet and the Web.
The structure of the intermediate language and the tests made during the final translation insure that the program is well behaved and only uses memory properly.

 Lecture ##   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
The designers had a wonderful goal of developing a language in which all features were orthogonal (could be applied in combinations to yield meaningful results) and that had a complete formal definition (using Aad van Wijngaarden's W-grammars).
Barbara Liskov's CLU language was one of a handful of data abstraction languages.
Java did finally put in place a language using a Common Intermediate Language (Java Bytecode -- earlier attempts with Pascal used something call P-code) that could be compiled anywhere and run anywhere (using the Java Virtual Machine).

 CS207 Final Exam, Fall 1999   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
Some of the features that made Java appropriate for for programming for these kinds of embedded systems--security, good exception handling, automatic garbage collection (that is, the prevention of memory leaks due to allocation of memory that is never later freed), etc.--have also made it appropriate for transmitting programs over the Web.
When Java programs (applets) are shipped from Web server to Web browser, they are sent as bytecodes, which the browser translates (or gets translated by a separate program, usually called a JVM implementation, or just a JVM) to the machine language of the real machine on which the browser is running.
Its intermediate language was called "p-code," which survived for a while until Turbo Pascal came along (this is an over-simplification of the events, but it is true that Borland, in a sense, exploited a weakness in the p-code idea).

 Edison Design Group, JFE   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
The intermediate language attempts to accurately represent the meaning of the source program in Java terms; implicit operations (e.g., conversions) are made explicit in the IL tree, but constructs are not otherwise added, removed, reordered, or flattened.
The intermediate language is not machine dependent (e.g., it does not specify registers or dictate the layout of stack frames).
JIL files can also be read from JAR or ZIP files.

 Encyclopedia article on Java programming language [EncycloZine]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
One major problem with languages such as C++ is the need for manual memory management.
Although the language has special syntax for them, arrays and strings are not primitive types: they are objects.
Java has been lauded for what some see as being simpler than other popular object-oriented languages such as C++, its garbage collection mechanisms as simplifying memory management, and having a consistent set of classes available across supported platforms.

 Nine Language Performance Round-up: Benchmarking Math & File I/O - OSNews.com
This article discusses a small-scale benchmark test run on nine modern computer languages or variants: Java 1.3.1, Java 1.4.2, C compiled with gcc 3.3.1, Python 2.3.2, Python compiled with Psyco 1.1.1, and the four languages supported by Microsoft's Visual Studio.NET 2003 development environment: Visual Basic, Visual C#, Visual C++, and Visual J#.
With Java, the intermediate language is called bytecode and the interpreter/compiler is called a Java Virtual Machine (JVM).
This language is syntactically identical to Java (although it implements only version 1.1.4 of the Java spec, which is by now quite out of date), so any differences in speed between Java and J# should be attributable purely to differences between the Sun and Microsoft runtime overhead.

 The Chicken of Tomorrow
Now that Java is old enough to document its own failure in copious detail, it is not okay to keep using it in new projects as if it were fresh, unproven ``technology'' with great promise, but a lot of kinks that we will have to tolerate as the price for working on the bleeding edge.
Java borrows its syntax from C and its runtime architecture from Pascal.
Java is thus the only realistic alternative to C for programmers who want to code for more than academic curiosity.

 Sun Invites IBM, Cray To Work On New Computer Language - Technology News by TechWeb   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
Sun's goal is to apply its expertise in Java to defining an architecture-independent, low-level software standard - like Java bytecodes - that a language could present to any computer's run-time environment.
"We think languages are one area where the three of us should cooperate, not compete," said Jim Mitchell, who took on leadership of Sun's HPCS effort in August.
The language could be used not just for the petascale systems in the project, but for a broader class of scientific and technical computers.

A Type System For Object Initialization In the Java Virtual Machine Bytecode Language Stephen Freund and John Mitchell Stanford University {freunds,mitchell}@cs.stanford.edu The Java language enables the creation of portable, compact programs which can be transmitted over a network and run safely on any computer.
This intermediate language is a typed, machine-independent bytecode language, and it is the foundation for many of Java's features, including portability across platforms, dynamic type resolution, and run-time type safety.
Despite the bytecode language's important role in the success of Java, there is no formal definition of its type system.

Smith said Microsoft has continually modified its attitude toward Java, which it licenses from Sun, as the threat of Java has waxed and waned.
Microsoft's most recent strategy is to try to convince developers that Java is simply a programming language and not a platform.
Smith said that over the next few years, Microsoft won't be able to relegate Java to almost-ran status; nor is Java likely to make a huge dent in Windows.

That's why Java became famous overnight, and why its independent existence as a general-purpose programming language has been hard to see through all the hype about "applets" and little dancing men on Web pages.
When Java programs (applets) are shipped from Web server to Web browser, they are sent as bytecodes, which the browser translates to the machine language of the real machine on which the browser is running.
The performance costs of having an intermediate language between Java and machine language are not unknown to the people at Sun, which is why they will soon release a collection of Java chips.
