So you wanted to build a JVM

as in why not???

actually: System.out.println("Hello World") would be a major achievement. It's nowhere near that level...

so far

  • starts a main class (TODO cmdline args)
  • loads classes from a classpath, including jar/jmod files
  • instantiates classes
  • runs bytecode (TODO more opcodes)
  • has INVOKEVIRTUAL and INVOKESPECIAL, including stackframes (TODO more invokes)
  • has a heap

more TODO's

  • native methods
  • stacktraces
  • check visibility
  • IO
  • garbage collection

Ultimate goal

  • Hello world domination
