Actually there are Java to native code compilers that will allow you to compile
your Java classes into pure machine code EXEs or DLLs. With added benifits such
as difficult reverse engineering, and improved performance (in some aspects).
Excelsior JET is one of them, but it costs and arm & leg :(. Such compilers will
be developed for the .NET platform, as it matures.
If only it had syntax & keywords simular to Euphoria, in a OOP way :P
