You know, I was wondering about that too.
After reading our reporters notes, in
particular this passage:
Judge: We've all seen that the
programs themselves are written with variables like "x" and "y", in the actual
Java code, not with memory locations. So where do those get changed to the
01?
David August: That gets done by javac. The programmer wrote
something with "y", and javac understands that it needs to create
instructions without symbolic references, so it moves the symbols to a
separate table and stores their location.
I've come to the
conclusion that Java, as currently presented, does not practice patent '104
since no symbolic references exist in a class file, they were removed by javac.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Except, Google's witness did say there was no 'dynamic' resolution of
symbolic references in Dalmik. But that may be one level of technical
terminology too far for the jury.
On the other hand, perhaps I should assume that this is explained more
clearly in Google's graphic illustrations. I know I would have used the
posters as an opportunity to make this essential point clear as crystal.
After all, this blows away one of Oracle's patents, as far as they relate to
Google's liability.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
