[Feature Request][Desktop][Android] Ahead-of-time compilation support #1291

Open itlancer opened 3 years ago

itlancer commented 3 years ago

Feature Description

Please consider Ahead-of-time compilation support for Desktop and Android platforms like it was done for iOS. It increase performance and AIR applications will be more robust and "feels" more like "native", especially for low-performance devices. Also it could decrease AIR applications file size.

Yes we've started looking at the idea of Android AOT compilation, there are a few steps involved...

@ajwfrost Any progress on this?

ajwfrost commented 5 months ago

Yes, we'd been working on this, and the bulk of the code is there in terms of the runtime. Just need to work out how to invoke it - a very different start-up process from the normal bootstrapping - and then get the SDK tools updated for it...

Will try to get someone to look into these final aspects..
