They integrated a JVM into the system. It was pretty cool, and IMO, 
quite a demonstration to how fungible and powerful a system like ST/X 
with it's coincident C code can be. I don't know if it shows up on the 
free "download" version though. IIRC, it was done at the behest of a 
customer (as well as Claus's desire to show it could be done). The demo 
I saw was some years ago, and it would not surprise me if it has not 
been kept up to date.
