Description
An Oberon-2 compiler with integrated make & build facilities for the Java runtime introduced alongside the Canterbury Modula-2 for Java in 1998 by Mill Hill & Canterbury Corporation after they stopped development of the native OS/2 Canterbury Modula-2 compiler, it retains high compatibility with the OS/2 compiler except that some of the Modula-2 like extensions have been dropped. To integrate better with the Java environment the tool allows direct import of any foreign Java class and SYSTEM.INLINE directive to allow direct insertion of Java code into Oberon modules. The compiler generates native Java 1.1 code that should run on all more recent Java versions and on Java-like environments or most Java subsets as used in mobile phones, etc.
