title: Is it possible that write a program with Java bytecode instructions directly?
body: <p>In .NET platform it is possible to write a program with Common Intermediate Language directly and compile the sources with IL Assembler (ILASM).</p>
  
  <p>For example below code is "Hello World" program.</p>
  
  <pre><code>.assembly Hello {}
  .assembly extern mscorlib {}
  .method static void Main()
  {
      .entrypoint
      .maxstack 1
      ldstr "Hello, world!"
      call void [mscorlib]System.Console::WriteLine(string)
      ret
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is it possible that write a program with Java bytecode instructions directly like .NET?</p>
