Processing Compiler

FluFlu
edited February 2014 in General Discussion

So here is my idea. I want to build an operating system with the bootloader and the kernel written in assembly and the other parts written in Processing because it is much easier to make a GUI with it, but I have a problem. I don't have a compiler so that the computer can understand the language and I also don't know how to implement it to make it work or in other words I don't know how to use it to make it work. Can you help me about it?

    You meant something like these:

    http://www.templeos.org/
    https://www.haiku-os.org/slideshows/haiku-1

    However, i don't think there is any JavaVM runtime on any of them! :O)

    Hum, I don't want to ruin your expectations, but if you are asking such questions, perhaps the project is a bit too ambitious for your current level of programming knowledge...

    The Processing compiler is shipped with Processing itself, and it is called a Java compiler. To run Java programs, you need a full Java stack (runtime), which needs a fully functional (and officially supported) operating system to run on, including video drivers, etc.
