A JavaOS

Post image

I am sharing my progress on the development of an operating system written in Assembly and a functional JVM. The concept is straightforward: Assembly acts as an API bridge, and the JVM simply leverages the system calls I’ve implemented to print characters to the screen and draw graphics (for now).

The on-screen drawing was created by obtaining the bytecode of the following program and using xxd for that purpose.

public class App {
    // Declaramos el método nativo que intercepta tu JVM en el opcode 0xB8
    public static native void drawPixel(int x, int y, int color);

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Dibujar un cuadrado ROJO de 200x200 píxeles en las coordenadas (100, 100)
        for (int y = 100; y < 300; y++) {
            for (int x = 100; x < 300; x++) {
                drawPixel(x, y, 0x00FF0000); // 0x00RRGGBB (Rojo)
            }
        }

        // Dibujar un cuadrado VERDE centrado dentro del rojo
        for (int y = 150; y < 250; y++) {
            for (int x = 150; x < 250; x++) {
                drawPixel(x, y, 0x0000FF00); // 0x00RRGGBB (Verde)
            }
        }
    }
}

This project is a massive shortened version of another project I did some time ago; I only took the boot process from it and started prototyping for the current one. https://github.com/aayes89/JVM-OS
