No one had any experience with embedded devices and B4J?

@gpa there was some discussion on the forum about running apps on a NAS recently. I dont know which JVM they were using. JamVM seems a bit old so it may not be great for B4J apps.

I would say for the most part users here would be limiting any "embedded" devices to Raspberry Pi.

Here is the thread;

[SOLVED][Server] How I can compile/build HelloWorld example for Synology NAS?

Hello to everybody! Maybe this is a silly question but I've not found an answer... I would like to test this https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/server-building-web-servers-with-b4j.37172/#content on my NAS Synology DS215J. Of course, I cannot build a standalone package because this...

Thanks for that info.
Yes, you are likely correct. It runs well on a Pi, but the Pi is not ideal for the project - relatively large and power hungry.

Is is possible to fully compile a b4j app to a native executable?

Are you worried about performance? Don't. B4J apps performance is excellent.

No - indeed performance is excellent as you say. I love B4J - just looking for a way to run a b4j app on a Vocore2 with openwrt linux
Fully compiled would be one way to get around the problem.
