RE: [eclipse-incubator-e4-dev] E4 probably too late?

Tom,
Some of the latest work of the SWT / compiler team involves
"cross-compiling" Java to ActionScript and JavaScript. Cross-compiling
to CLR might be another option that I would not rule out.

> b) There are many talks about UI scripting in E4. If this scripts will
be a part of UI, which shall be deployed to non-Java runtime (CLR or
Flash), how are you going to transpose scripts for example in Groovy to
.NET or Flash environments. What other limitations will be?

E4 has not the task to translate your code into CLR. SWT will use
WPF-API under the hood instead of Win32-API and the UI scripting we talk
about means that the customer has Workbench-DOM (WOM) and can script the
UI. There are no plans to cross-compile Groovy to JavaScript to make
script run on the browser, ... .
