We're not using LLVM in Adobe's AS4 compiler. The new compiler works just like Falcon's AS3 except it has a somewhat different lexer/parser due to the syntactic changes, a somewhat different semantic analyzer due to the semantic changes, and a quite different code generator due to the new byte c

Thanks for the clarification. I knew I saw some stuff about LLVM in one of the presentations I attended -- I just wasn't sure to what degree. -Nick On Sun, Nov 18, 2012 at 11:53 PM, Kevin Newman wrote: > There are two different Flash related LLVM products at Adobe, afaik. > > They have an LLVM

There are two different Flash related LLVM products at Adobe, afaik. They have an LLVM frontend which takes ABC code and turns that into ARM code for packing on iPhone. Then there's the Alchemy stuff, which is an LLVM backend, for generating ABC bytecode from other front ends like C and C++. T

I don't know much about compilers, or about how much work it'll be, but that's my question. How much work would writing an AS3 front end for LLVM be? I imagine it's a lot of work. Adobe did it with ABC bytecode, so it seems it should be theoretically possible (if a lot of work). There are ba

I'm not Alex, but IMHO taking into account that most UI code will have to be written natively for each output target and that UI code tends to be the main bottleneck in nowdays apps there's no reason to think that this new system would output very poor performant code or bytecode.

Hi Alex, do you also have in mind to use HTML/JS as main output before cross platform achievment (for example using Cordova)? if so, don't you expect very poor performances with this strategy? Le 17/11/2012 17:05, Alex Harui a écrit : On 11/17/12 2:47 AM, "Joan Llenas Masó" wrote: I thin
