Hi,
We have two backend compilers for X10. One of them (Managed X10)
compiles X10 to Java to run on the JVM. The other one (Native X10)
compiles X10 to C++ and thus produces native executables by using the
platform C++ compilers. Using Native X10, you can produce an executable
from an X10 program for a wide range of platforms (to the first
approximation, any platform that has g++).
