Hi lists, I'm pleased to announce the first Beta release of haXe available now on http://haxe.org
haXe is a new programming language that can be used for Flash development but also ServerSide and JavaScript development. Some haXe features that you might like : * haXe is available for Flash Players 6-7-8. It will support also Flash 8.5 in the near future, bringing you Flash newest feature without needing to learn a new language everytime. * haXe is very conservative about Flash API. You can use all the Flash API like you were used to do in ActionScript. * porting your code from AS2 to haXe is very easy, and you should notice additional performances when running it. * haXe have automatic Delegate creation. That means that you don’t need to worry about which context your methods will be executed in. * haXe has a Flexible Type System. It’s not dynamicly typed since we want to be able to scale easily and let the compiler do a lot of checks when we modify the source. It’s not staticly typed either and you don’t have to type every variable you’re using. haXe Beta 1 should work very well for Flash development, and will even improve in the upcoming weeks. You can visit now the haXe website on http://haxe.org Best, Nicolas Motion-Twin _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list [email protected] http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
