Re: [pro] lisp on mobile platforms these days
Hello, When you say "targeting mobile devices" do you mean 1. You get a lisp REPL on your Android/iPhone? 2. You can write Apps in Lisp such that the end user does not know whether lisp is there or not. I could be interested in either, though to be honest I am slightly more interested in the first. Thanks. bruce

dear lispers,
what is the state of the art in running lisp (not just CL) on mobile platforms, preferably in a portable way?
is mkcl viable to run as a native app both on iOS and android?
if iOS has too many legal constraints and whatnot, then let's forget it for now.
We are working on targeting mobile devices and are currently seeking alpha testers. Please contact us directly if you would like to build a Common Lisp runtime for iOS or Android. We're not going to publish further details yet, so please don't ask here. -- Martin Simmons LispWorks Ltd http://www.lispworks.com/ _______________________________________________ pro mailing list pro@common-lisp.net http://common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pro

i mean the second. my primary goal is to avoid writing much code in C or Java. on another note, thanks a lot to everyone for the enlightening answers! for now i think i'll further investigate kawa, or some other lisp based on the JVM, and look into using http://www.robovm.org/ on iOS. i'll need easy integration with the native API's. -- • attila lendvai • PGP: 963F 5D5F 45C7 DFCD 0A39 -- “Birds born in a cage think flying is an illness.” — Alejandro Jodorowsky
