Yes, but they are relying on specific, very special constructs of 
Java, such as:

http://www.rtsj.org/specjavadoc/javax/realtime/NoHeapRealtimeThread.html
http://www.rtsj.org/specjavadoc/javax/realtime/RealtimeThread.html

which have very little, if any, to do do with regular Java. BTW, 
since when a Java programmer should be concerned about... heap? 
What's that? malloc()?

The fact that it uses the same syntax as Java, simply does not 
mae it Java, at least in the (regular) JVM sense.
