Java popularized the idea of a VM but it wasn't the first language to do so, nor the last. Today that idea has spread much farther. The JVM is a general purpose platform (Scala, Clojure, JRuby, etc.) And the .NET Common Language Runtime has taken many of the same ideas and run with them (indeed, that's where a lot of the technical underpinnings for the Singularity project come from). Not to mention LLVM and many other projects. |
