The new Application Gallery page is open, on which we are publishing real-world applications optimized by Excelsior JET. If you want your application to appear there, or if you know of a popular free Java application that might benefit from optimization, please let us know
Excelsior JET 4.8 Maintenance Pack 1 is available for download. It is a highly recommended update that fixes multiple customer issues.
Excelsior JET Embedded is the first third-party implementation of the Java SE for Embedded technology, delivering higher performance and smaller ROM / flash memory footprint than the original implementation available from Sun Microsystems.
JaLingo is a free OS independent dictionary application, which we are sponsoring by providing the author with a free copy of Excelsior JET, Professional Edition. JaLingo 0.6.0, released on December 11th, is available as both platform-independent jar and as a native Windows application. The author reports that the natively compiled version works faster, and of course it works on any Windows PC regardless of whether it has Java installed.
The sponsorship program is open to authors of non-commercial Java software interested in optimizing and packaging their applications for Windows and/or Linux using Excelsior JET. Please email us if you are interested. Note that your application does not have to be open-source.
