Hey guys, you'd better point out some disadvantages of bytecode once you speak about its advantages!!
This article is, umm, rather incomprehensible to someone who doesn't already know everything about this topic. k.lee
Bytecode may be used as an intermediate code of a compiler, or may be the saved 'tokenized' form used by an interpreter
How can this sentence be related to virtual machine? -- HJH

Shouldn't the ByteCode Engineering Library link point to http://jakarta.apache.org/bcel/ as that page doesn't exist? - Jeremy Harmon
"Byte code", "byte-code", and "bytecode" seem to be fighting it out. Specifically, there is an entry for the Java Bytecode. Anyone have a strong preference as to which the final version should be? Charles Merriam 21:10, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

- I also vote for bytecode; a quick Google search seems to confirm its greater popularity. More importantly, "The Java Virtual Machine Specification" by Lindholm and Yellin (1997) spells it "bytecode". This is surely the ultimate reference, at least for the Java version. --Mike Van Emmerik 12:37, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
- Bytecode, definately. Wouter Lievens 12:51, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

"The current reference implementation of the Ruby programming language does not use bytecode, however it relies on tree-like structures which resemble intermediate representations used in compilers.". Is it relevant to talk about Ruby not using bytecode in this article? - Philoctet
