It sounds like the obj-c garbage collector is deprecated in 10.8. Is there any plan for MacRuby to work without it?

- jballanc 15y agoYes. It's also worth noting that while Apple will stop shipping the Obj-C GC, it is also an OSS project that anyone can fork/ship if they really wanted to.
- chrisdevereux 15y agoCool. Although since GC needs to be supported by all code in a process, it's not enough to just fork the GC and ship that. I'd worry that if Apple stop building the system frameworks (which you definitely can't fork...) with GC support, any GC application will fail at launch. Is there a way round that? I hope there is, because other than that, MacRuby is pretty awesome.
