Marc Hoffman has confirmed<\/a> that “Nougat” is to Mac\/iOS as “Cooper” was to Java<\/a>.  Some have speculated that this will be based on Mono, but Oxygene has had Mono covered for some time already, so I strongly doubt that this is the case.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Far more likely is that just as “Cooper” was – among other things – an Oxygene compiler with a back-end that emitted Java Byte Code and language extensions and bindings that made it “play nice” with and in the JRE (and, therefore, Android<\/a>), then “Nougat” will be Oxygene with … what ?… an LLVM back end ? and language extensions and bindings to play nice with the Objective-C runtime and Cocoa\/CocoaTouch ?<\/p>\n

Details such as these are speculation on my part at this point, extrapolating from what was delivered in Oxygene for Java<\/strong>, but I am excited and interested to see what RemObjects have in mind and how they are going to deliver on this.<\/p>\n

Some of this appears to be confirmed – or at least strongly hinted at – in the responses and additional detail emerging in a forum thread discussing the new product<\/a>.<\/p>\n

With Lazarus 1.0 being released recently and now this news, these are exciting times for Pascal developers.<\/p>\n

I think I already know what I will be spending the money on that I saved by not renewing my Delphi SA this year. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
