JavaFX Compiler

An interesting thing happened this morning, and that was the launch of the JavaFX Compiler project. The JavaFX compiler will allow applications to be compiled to byte code, in the same manner as with javac, such that they will run on any compliant JVM but with significant performance improvements over what's possible using the interpreter. Chris Oliver posted some early benchmarks which demonstrate the potential of this new addition to the JavaFX universe.

The JavaFX compiler is built upon the same infrastructure which composes javac and what's perhaps even more significant is that this project is being launched into the open source community under the GPL license very early in it's development cycle. We at Sun truly want the participation of the community in the design, development and eventual deployment of this promising compiler and it is hoped that with the availability of the project and collaboration with a large development community, the entire JavaFX community will reap the benefits.

I got a way to compile SVG into standard java classes, I try many times to get
in touch with sun, perhaps this time I will succeed you can compile javafx without
modifing javac or class format.
