Hxobjc target

This fork contains the Hxobjc target.

Building from sources

1. Clone the repository using git. Be sure to initialize and fetch the submodules.

   git clone [email protected]:ralcr/haxe.git
   cd haxe
   git submodule init
   git submodule update
   

2. You now need to hardcode the path to the new std lib. In main.ml file at line 810 change the first path to match yours:

   com.class_path <- ["/Users/Cristi/Documents/haxecompiler/haxe/std/";"";"/"]
   

3. Build Haxe with:

   make haxe
   

4. Or build Haxe and the tools with:

   make
   

5. On Mac you can run the build.sh script that will compile Haxe and will build the demos as well:

   ./build.sh
   

6. If something is not working run first:

   make clean
   make
   

Getting started with iOS

The starting point of your app should look like this, everything else is ignored:

public static function main() {
	return new UIApplicationMain ( AppDelegate );
}

Where the AppDelegate.hx conforms with the UIApplicationDelegate. This is the main method of your app, you should put the code before returning.

class AppDelegate extends UIResponder implements UIApplicationDelegate {
	public function application (application:UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:NSDictionary) :Bool {
		// See the demos from hxcocoa lib please
		return true;
	}
}

In case i forget this is how i merge the HF/haxe repository in my local fork

git fetch upstream
git merge upstream/development
