How to test

The java compiler has not yet been integrated. To run a class file enter code in the editor in the format:

// From JSON
{
"<classname>.class": "<base64 encoded compiled classfile>
}

Compile with javac *.java -target 8 -source 8

The standard library is missing almost all native method implementations so only simple Java programs can run.

Also note that lambda functions are quite slow.
