Nope — as the V8 documentation says, there is no interpreter at all. JS code only runs by being converted to native machine code first. > It would permit me to support all the platforms where the JITC is either not > possible or not supported (for example I understand that Apple rejects > application that uses such technologies). That restriction is only for iPhone apps (not Mac OS) and is against running any sort of executable code (interpreted or not) downloaded from the Internet. There's no restriction about interpreters in an iPhone app, as long as the code being interpreted ships with the app. —Jens --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ v8-users mailing list [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/v8-users -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
