[OT] Dartflash
Hi,
There a few people on the list who might be interested in this:
https://github.com/bp74/dartflash
It's the Flash Player API implemented in Google Dart. I've not given it a try to see how complete it is yet but might be worth keeping an eye on/playing about with.
Thanks,
Justin

No need to wait for dart. The GWT Compiler does a better Job to cross
compile to JavaScript and it s also open source.

True, and I wasn't saying we should disregard Dart altogether, for a
Flex-JS target
it might indeed be interesting. It might even be interesting to target the
Dart VM
once Falcon drops.

"The Dart platform includes a language, libraries, an editor, a virtual
machine (VM) for both servers and browsers, and a compiler to JavaScript."
If that compiler truly generates cross-browser JS we won't need Microsoft's
or Apple's blessing. And since it's open-source it may be interesting to
look at for possible future Flex-to-JS compilation.

Thanks David, very nicely put, I agree with most of what you state in the
article.
Its an interesting thought that Microsoft would be against Dart since
supporting it
would enable Google to easily compete with their Office suite.
cheers,

Dart is starting to look really nice indeed. Unfortunately Microsoft and
Apple have both already indicated
that they are not interested in supporting the language/runtimes in any
way. So that might hinder adoption...
I guess the powers that be would much rather see us suffer in JS hell...
