PureBasic Forums - English

If you have a developer account, you'll be glad to know that PureBasic works just fine on it. You just have to install the 10.10 command line tools.

That's indeed a relief (for us as well ) ! Thanks for testing it.

No problem.

It adds Swift, additionally to Objective-C:

- Introducing Swift
- Welcome to Swift
- iBooks: The Swift Programming Language

- Interoperability: Interacting with Objective-C APIs

Swift looks pretty nice, although with some odd quirks. Almost makes me wish I had a Mac to test it with.

To me it looks much better than Objective-C.

It is more Haxe/ActionScript/JavaScript/ECMAScript style.

You tested with xcode 6 ?

Suppose these guys are not happy about the name choice:
http://swift-lang.org/

Wait, there is more:
Swift!BASIC

I haven't. I just use the command line tools.

Yeah, actionscript/javascript was the first thing that came to mind for me. I've never used or seen the other two.

Github has already 312 Swift repositories

3 more were added while I wrote this...
