Get that one right out of your lexicon.

Nothing left to say. The ObjC Run-time is available, just not Apple's. Thu, 26 Jun 2008 19:53:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (tyrione) Comments Impressive http://osnews.com/thread?320276 http://osnews.com/thread?320276 Looks much better than SproutCore.

And wow...

They /really have/ invented their own language, based around Objective-C, and wrote a runtime engine in javascript to run it in the browser. I'm talking, this thing is tokenized and parsed and executed in a virtual machine. In javascript.

Sample of the language they invented-

The app they made with it is pretty special too. Thu, 26 Jun 2008 20:43:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (Kabal) Comments RE[2]: Holy-unnecessary! http://osnews.com/thread?320294 http://osnews.com/thread?320294

Depends on what one calls unnecessary - if online applications took a form line that in the future (along with broadband improvement), I'd be happy for that to be the future of computers (although I would prefer it to be an option rather than a replacement).

Looked fantastic in Opera 9.5.

That's definitely something I'd use to add to my work. Fri, 27 Jun 2008 05:04:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (tyrione) Comments Javascript limitation http://osnews.com/thread?320424 http://osnews.com/thread?320424 This look very nice.

But instead of building a preprocessor and a kinda-new language (obj-j). Wouldn't be possible to implement message passing in pure javascript? Fri, 27 Jun 2008 17:11:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (sanctus) Comments
