Short answer: no Long(er) answer: V8 depends on the OS for things like memory allocation and thread creation. You would have to write quite a bit of glue code to make it work in a "bare metal" (god, I hate that phrase) environment. V8's build tooling isn't very amenable to such scenarios either. -- -- v8-users mailing list v8-users@googlegroups.com http://groups.google.com/group/v8-users --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "v8-users" group.
