thank you ;-)

I don't think so. It depends on your previous knowledge and how
much you want to implement. If you have already done a simple processor
and you only want to execute a few bytecodes that are 'fixed' in
an on-chip RAM it *could* be possible. That's the way I started...

You need some way to load your Java application. The minimum is
to get out the bytecodes from a single method and put it into
the FPGA memory (see above). Perhaps you can use some tools from
JOP for this task.

Implement the execution unit, in the case of a Java processor
a stack machine.
wish you luck and some fun with your Java processor,
Martin
