http://www.xmlvm.org/ is the web site for XMLVM. It's basically a cross-compiler for interpreted languages, but it can do a bunch of other stuff too - like create an iPhone app from a Java application, or convert Java apps to .NET executables, or even .NET to Python. Cool, huh?
Acquiring it is a bit of a pain: You have to make sure you have the Java JDK 6 or newer installed, along with Xcode and the corresponding command-line tools. Once those things are installed, do this in Terminal:

Acquiring it is a bit of a pain: You have to make sure you have the Java JDK 6 or newer installed, along with Xcode and the corresponding command-line tools. Once those things are installed, do this in Terminal:
- cd to the place you want the XMLVM project to live
- Issue this command to get or update XMLVM: svn co https://xmlvm.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/xmlvm/trunk/xmlvm
- To build xmlvm, first cd xmlvm (to go to the xmlvm subdirectory the previous command created) then issue this command to perform the build: ant
- Then, build the demos: ant demos
- Finally, issue this command to install what you've just built: sudo ant install
