All of the above was answered by codenameone.com already. And unlike flutter it's unlikely to be spring cleaned anytime soon.

How do you do things like text input without native widget integration? Are you familiar with Codename One ( https://www.codenameone.com/ )? It seems to me that what we implemented there is roughly in the same direction alth

Its still around and became Codename One http://www.codenameone.com/ and its way better as such.

Actually you can purchase servers to run within the organization e.g. for banks and other orgs that can't use the cloud: http://www.codenameone.com/corporate-server.html The architecture is pretty hairy so making this

Actually not that far from it. Although its in Java so its higher level abstraction and its more WORA oriented in the Java style. More like Swing.

Codename One predated RoboVM by more than a year. Its a WORA solution whereis RoboVM Java for iPhone more like a tool to replace Objective-C.

Since the article was written by a Sun guy Dalvik is probably not the area of expertise there...

That's true. The article however, does state that a GC stall is bad but explains it can be avoided with a good GC and a good programmer. With ARC you get more consistent performance but the article was going after the claim that GC inh

Maybe this Objective-C optimization isn't implemented in iOS: http://www.shannah.ca/blog/?p=226

The original article seemed to have a mistake there, it now says dynamic binding. This is indeed much slower than regular invocation as the first article you linked to states.

1. ARC isn't a GC. Objective-C on the desktop has a true GC which isn't supported for iOS development. ARC just hides the repetitive pool release calls but still has the cyclic reference problems. 2. Sure. Its still not a GC, its reference

It translates Java to Objective-C code without GC support (uses reference counting which you need to annotate). It doesn't define any UI so effectively you need to work on a Mac just without all the wonderful tools for UI building that appl

Its not automatic, you need to explicitly release. They are referring to the tools builtin in xcode which you will have to use manually to debug memory problems in Objective-C then move it back to your Java code as annotations.

XMLVM is an academic project and not run by google employees.

Nope. ARC is just slightly better pools but its no GC alternative and won't work with Java code. Java can't be used without a GC so these guys came up with special annotations for reference counting which is very iOS specific. So essential
