A good book for a serioud reader-Has a lot info in it,
By anchanattu@msn.com (CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Java Virtual Machine Specification, The (Paperback)
This book is only for a serioud reader. Can be used as a reference for a compiler designer, a machine designer. But The book is not well organized in its contents. So give special care while reading it. I feel this is a best book for core information.Boby John Anchanattu

Be careful of the copyright and license agreement!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Java Virtual Machine Specification, The (Paperback)
This book has a very unusual copyright notice. By using the information in this book, you implicitly enter into an agreement with Sun microsystems where any clean room Java implementations you write, from scratch, have to be submitted to Sun for conformance testing. I did not discover this until years after I bought the book. This kind of a "contract-by-fait-accompli" is illegal and unenforceable, but it may still be a pain to deal with. I suggest the Meyer and Downing book instead, since it is unencumbered.
