Does this work on bytecode as well? #61

Can this compile Java bytecode to LLVM, or just Java source? Like if I was using other JVM languages that compiled to bytecode, could I use this to further compile that to LLVM ?

It only compiles Java source to bytecode. In principle you could use a decompiler to get back to Java source...
