> Can I program directly with VM language !
Do you meqan can you write a program in byte codes? In theory, Yes.
> Is there a tool for that !
No. You would need to use a tool that lets you write bytes to a file
like Norton Disk Editor or some such.
> Would this be a security hole ?
No. The java interpreter checks the bytes codes to make sure they
don't violate security. If you write security violating byte codes
the interpreter won't run them.
