Hello all,
I just stumbled across this project, and I must say it looks brilliant! I have two questions from the start:
1. I've read that Objective-Basic projects generate Objective-C source code which is then compiled as normal-- is it possible to write a program in Objective-Basic, compile it [thereby generating an objective-c source] and later simply open the objective-c source to work with in Xcode? I ask because I'm learning objective-c now as well and it would be nice if I could sort of move back and forth between the languages within a single project.
2. With the infamous 3.3.1 clause added to the iphone OS terms of service "banning" cross-compilers, will objective-basic still be coming to the iDevices? I do hope it will, as Steve Jobs seems to have already cleared just about all the major middleware products (Gamesalad, Corona SDK, Unity 3D, PhoneGap, MonoTouch...) that might have been affected [except, of course, the Flash app packager] stating that they don't actually violate his new terms. If he's letting those through I expect he wouldn't object to objective-Basic on the iDevices either.
Thanks,
