Java for iPhone urged by Sun official
( ) - The Java platform may run on 2 billion handheld phones but not on Apple’s trendy new iPhone. Apple’s stance was called a mistake by a Sun Microsystems executive Wednesday at the AJAXWorld conference in Santa Clara. ‘I think it’s a mistake. I think it would provide a lot more flexibility in applications being developed ‘ for the iPhone said Bob Brewin Sun Distingushied Engineer and vice president for software. JavaScript runs on the phone and someone will put Java on the iPhone Brewin said. But by not having it on there now users and Java developers are being shortchanged according to Brewin. Current Java applications such as the LimeWire media-sharing application could be easily ported and developers could choose the Java language for building new programs for the iPhone he said. There also could be a lot of Java-based games made to work on the device Brewin said. He attributed Apple’s stance to the company wanting developers to develop for only a small set of APIs. ‘Fundamentally they don’t like open systems ‘ Brewin said. Apple representatives could not be immediately reached for comment Wednesday afternoon but Apple CEO Steve Jobs has been dismissive of having Java run on the iPhone. Brewin also noted the status of Sun’s multimedia display technology. JavaFX could give the benefit of rich applications to the iPhone Brewin said. The JavaFX compiler is available in an early-access release right now. Sun expects to release components of the JavaFX runtime next year Brewin said. Binaries for the JavaFX Mobile component of the platform will be showcased next year as well. While JavaFX will compete with highly touted technologies such as Microsoft’s Silverlight and Adobe Systems’s Flash and Flex Brewin believes JavaFX offers advantages. ‘I think the biggest strength to JavaFX sort of from a core principal is because it is built on Java you know it is ubiquitous ‘ Brewin said. ‘You’re not … beholden to a proprietary implementation of another vendor ‘ Brewin said. JavaFX also offers a simpler programming model than AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML) he added. Also Brewin said the Java Community Process a multi-vendor effort on making changes to the Java platform is going through a transition because of the recent open-sourcing of Java. ‘When we open-sourced Java it just changed the dynamic a bit ‘ he said. One example of how it has changed is contributors have to think about whether they want to contribute their intellectual property to what is now an open source platform. But Brewin anticipates the continuance of the JCP. ‘I think the JCP will thrive ‘ he said. During a morning presentation Brewin spoke of a ‘blue shift’ and ‘red shift’ phenomenon in computing comparing IT to the physics concepts of blue and red shifts in which light turns red as it becomes more distant and blue as it gets closer. The red shift represents applications on the Web which go out worldwide and scale to millions of persons. The blue shift represents computing in the enterprise Brewin said. Building red shift applications requires thinking about a different application space one in which there will not just be 10 000 people using the application behind the firewall but one that could serve 10 million customers Brewin said.
