- wtallis 15y agoIs there any actual incompatibility that prevents building an Objective-C runtime for NaCl, or is it simply a matter of ObjC not being included by default?
- drewcrawford 15y agoI've been thinking (warning: pure speculation ahead) that I could target my binaries to LLVM IR and then use the highly-experimental PNaCL. But who knows how long it will be before that is viable.
- xorglorb 15y agoThis is pure speculation, but its possible that the runtime does some tricks for performance (possibly in the method dispatch routine) that the NaCl sandbox doesn't allow.
- runn1ng 15y agoFoundation is a diferent beast than Obj-C. Obj-C is an open standard language. Foundation is a proprietary library with some key stuff even PATENTED by Apple (for example, the AutoRelease Pool falls into some of the Apple patents).
