Java code used for lynx game?

[wapchimp]

I'm no programmer, but as Java games (for cell phones) are programmed in C+ C++ etc, can these be ported to the lynx some way, or would it be easier to start from scratch? I understand lynx uses compliler/C, but I'm guessing it's not backwards compatible

 

Apologies if I have got it all wrong

My educated(ish) guess is that it would be easier to start from scratch. I think Lynx has a lot less raw horsepower than today's cellphones, so coming up with a proper Java Virtual Machine seems pretty unlikely...

Java games are coded in Java. No direct port, and as previously mentioned the Lynx isn't beefy enough to support a J2ME environment.
