/**

 * The {@code Compiler} class is provided to support Java-to-native-code

 * compilers and related services. By design, the {@code Compiler} class does

 * nothing; it serves as a placeholder for a JIT compiler implementation.

 *

 * <p> When the Java Virtual Machine first starts, it determines if the system

 * property {@code java.compiler} exists. (System properties are accessible

 * through {@link System#getProperty(String)} and {@link

 * System#getProperty(String, String)}.  If so, it is assumed to be the name of

 * a library (with a platform-dependent exact location and type); {@link

 * System#loadLibrary} is called to load that library. If this loading

 * succeeds, the function named {@code java_lang_Compiler_start()} in that

 * library is called.

 *

 * <p> If no compiler is available, these methods do nothing.
