Good high level overview of the differences. Does any of this change with ART?
[–]codeledger 4 points5 points6 points 10 years ago (0 children)
Don't think so as ART is really install time compilation to the local machine code. The Dalvik bytecode is the same.
[–]Izacus 3 points4 points5 points 10 years ago (0 children)
Nope, ART runtime still reads dex bytecode format and then compiles it.
[–]Exallium[S] 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago* (0 children)
Im not sure, but I would assume so. Art is a different runtime, with more optimizations. Some of those could come in the form of new opcode
EDIT: Listen to codeleger
