Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

There's a fundamental problem with your goal, in that Java is a scripting language, which needs a CLR to run, which depends on an OS. So you cannot build an OS on top of a scripting language sitting on a CLR on top of an OS (or you could, but what would be the point).

More to the point, you could just take an existing environment and remove all file associations other than .js, so that it would only handle Java (something along those lines). Use one of the limited OS environments, that has most stuff already stripped out, like Windows Mobile or Android.

Hey Nitin yes you can build an operating system implemented in Java check out TOS and download the pdf for ideas but I am afraid it would be slow. Check ou tthe links below for some reading.

your actually wrong Javascript and java are completely different javascript is also known as ECMAScript wich is maintained by emca international and is for client side scripting as Java is a high level programming language compiled to byte code and vm's wich is maintained by oracle(originally sun) so if your talking about Java from oracle it is very possible to make a os oh and a os in java has already been made its called JavaOS (discontinued) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaOS wich is completely written in java
