Hmmm... funny... Apple uses J/Direct in its JVM!!! :)

I take it you know the context that "pissing on" was used - as in, doing 
it so well that it pisses all over them.

Besides, the assembler & linker will be in either plain ol' Java, or C. 
Only the IDE requires WFC.

Also, SIMCoupe Win32 will use WFC as its UI, and everything else will be 
in DLL's which it calls.

's faster to write it that way.
