| Posted By: Joseph Chandler Posted On: Dec 5, 2001 Views: 369 | Binary Java exe Port it to Java. Then use Jet(http://www.excelsior.com/jet) to compile it to a native win32 exe. For all other OSes, it'll run under a JVM. Then, you only have one source base to maintain. Plus, you still have the optimized client for win32. The truth is, Java running on a VM is plenty fast for a messenger. Since Java1.3 released over a year ago, Java hasn't been slow. It still has memory issues if you use swing, but that's getting better too. The best part of Java is that it's more RAD and more maintainable than C++. So, we'll start getting features quicker (after the inital port of course). Maybe Imunified.com will eventually become something. Until then, go Trillian and go Java. |
