Traditionally, loading of classfiles is needed when Java applications are run by a virtual machine. However, for embedded systems it is preferable to have all files relevant for an application in a single executable file that may even be stored in read only memory (ROM).

The JamaicaVM Builder tool provides a way to create a single application out of a set of class files and the Jamaica Virtual Machine.
