The Z88 Development Team is proud to release OZvm V1.1. This is our third public release since this application was developed quite some years ago. This is the ultimate release as a Java application. All future work will be a re-implementation using the Qt (C++) framework, which promises more platform targets running on Intel and Arm architectures. We anticipate to be able to run on Android and iOS as well. Well - ideas in the making...
We wanted to give our users the most easy and convenient way of running the emulator, with minimal effort. For Windows and Linux we have obtained a minimalist license of the Excelsior JET toolchain, which has enabled us to produce native executable binaries - executing the Cambridge Z88 emulation very smooth and fast. For Mac OS X we have provided a ready-made application, so OZvm is having Mac look n' feel, even though it is still a Java JAR running behind the scene.
