there are still several native methods that need to be implemented. 
E.g., if you try to println() a float or a double, Harmony ends up in 
native method 
org_apache_harmony_luni_util_NumberConverter_bigIntDigitGeneratorInstImpl()
That needs to be implemented in xmlvm/src/xmlvm2c/lib/native. Patches 
for missing native methods are certainly more than welcome!

You can use this for iOS as well, although there are similar 
limitations. In this case, there are still some implementations of Cocoa 
wrappers missing (in xmlvm/src/xmlvm2c/compat-lib/iphone). Our internal 
XMLVM iPhone demos can already be cross-compiled to C (plus the 
dependent Harmony classes), but again, some work remains and patches are 
welcome.
