VM is mainly implemented in C/C++ and a few Java code The most of class library code is written in Java, and a few C code to deal with file system and network etc. If you are a pure Java programmer, class library is a good place to start, I suggest you to start from jndi, sql, beans, java.util modules, they are pure Java code. -- Best Regards, Regis.
