How far off is support for native iPhone apps written in Ruby? Is this on the roadmap?
- cscotta 17y agoI believe the roadblock here is the lack of support for automatic garbage collection for applications developed using the iPhone SDK in the mobile OS. I'm a Ruby developer, not iPhone/Cocoa so this could be way off base, but I believe this is what it came down to in a previous discussion.
- GeoJawDguJin 17y agoMacRuby relies on the Objective-C garbage collector, which is disabled on the iPhone.
- rufugee 17y agoSo would it be possible to plug in another garbage collection scheme...just for iPhone apps?
