Hi,
the explanation for that is pretty simple. XMLVM provides its own Java
based emulator which is basically a pure Java desktop application.
"Java-for-iPhone" applications use the Java classes if they are run on
XMLVM's emulator (without being cross-compiled). This is a great tool if
you have to debug your application because you are still in a Java-only
world. For that you can use the debugging tools of your choice and you
don't have to worry about Objective-C. If the application is cross
compiled the Java implementation of the classes you mentioned is not
needed. Instead the application is linked against the Objective-C
implementation which basically wraps the already existent Cocoa Touch
classes and provide the name-mangled API which gets called by all the
cross-compiled classes.
Does this answer your question?
