16. Fig. 1.1 Typical Java environment. Primary Memory . . . . . . Disk Disk Disk Editor Compiler Class Loader Program is created in an editor and stored on disk in a file ending with .java. Compiler creates bytecodes and stores them on disk in a file ending with .class. Class loader reads .class files containing bytecodes from disk and puts those bytecodes in memory. Phase 1 Phase 2 Phase 3 Primary Memory . . . . . . Bytecode Verifier Bytecode verifier confirms that all bytecodes are valid and do not violate Java’s security restrictions. Phase 4 Primary Memory . . . . . . Interpreter Interpreter reads bytecodes and translates them into a language that the computer can understand, possibly storing data values as the program executes. Phase 5
